Share Member Interactions

This example demonstrates a team where member interactions during the current run are shared with other members through share_member_interactions=True.

This allows members to see what other members have done during the same run, enabling better coordination and avoiding duplicate work.

How it Works

When share_member_interactions=True, interaction details are appended to tasks sent to members:

<member_interaction_context>
- Member: User Profile Agent
- Task: Get the user's profile information
- Response: {"name": "John Doe", "email": "[e-mail]", ...}

- Member: Technical Support Agent
- Task: Answer technical support questions
- Response: Here's how to change your billing address...
</member_interaction_context>

This allows the Billing Agent to see that the User Profile Agent has already retrieved the user’s information, avoiding duplicate tool calls.

When to Use

Use share_member_interactions=True when:

• Multiple members might need the same information
• You want to avoid duplicate API calls or tool executions
• Members need to coordinate their actions during a single run
• One member’s work builds on another’s within the same request
