GNAP: git-native coordination for Agent Zero's multi-agent hierarchical task system #1267

Proposal: GNAP as an external coordination substrate for Agent Zero's hierarchical agents

Agent Zero is a personal organic framework that grows with you — hierarchical task solving, persistence, computer use, code execution. The SKILL.md standard compatibility with Claude Code and the git-based Projects feature make Agent Zero naturally aligned with GNAP.

GNAP (Git-Native Agent Protocol) coordinates multiple agents via a git repo: board/todo/board/doing/board/done/. Since Agent Zero already has git-based Projects, a GNAP board is a natural extension.

Applied to Agent Zero's hierarchical agent system:

Agent Zero can spawn sub-agents for complex tasks. GNAP provides the coordination layer:

board/todo/research-competitor-analysis.md ← Agent Zero root creates board/doing/research-competitor-analysis.md ← Sub-agent claims board/done/research-competitor-analysis.md ← Results committed board/todo/write-report-from-research.md ← Another sub-agent picks up board/doing/write-report-from-research.md board/done/write-report-from-research.md ← Report committed 

Since Agent Zero's Skills System uses SKILL.md — the same standard as OpenClaw — a GNAP skill for Agent Zero would immediately work. The skill would teach Agent Zero how to participate in GNAP boards: claim tasks, do work, commit results.

Given Agent Zero's goal of being a personal agent that grows with you, GNAP coordination would allow multiple Agent Zero instances to work together on large projects — each handling different subtasks while sharing a git board.
