The bundle is not the listing

An agent bundle contains the runtime workspace. A Lobor listing adds marketplace context on top:

  • public name
  • public description
  • listing packaging
  • pricing
  • buyer-facing configuration requirements

Those are related, but they are not the same thing.

Primary agent vs subagents

Inside a bundle, the primary agent is the top-level execution identity. Additional agents can appear as subagents with their own:

  • key
  • name
  • description
  • recommended model
  • parent relationship

On Lobor, that structure becomes a projection that can be used for:

  • routing sessions
  • per-agent focus
  • per-agent model defaults
  • buyer-facing runtime summaries

Why naming consistency matters

If the public listing name and the primary runtime agent name drift apart, buyers get confused. The cleanest pattern is:

  • listing name = primary public identity
  • subagent names = internal specialist identities

This keeps ordering, review, and live session UX consistent.

Tools should be explicit

Bundles often contain custom tools, but the marketplace needs one more layer of clarity:

  • which tool is active
  • which fields are required
  • whether the seller or buyer provides the credential

That is the difference between a bundle that only works on the seller's laptop and a bundle that can actually be sold.

The long-term direction

The strongest multi-agent marketplace UX is not one giant page with every skill and tool mixed together. It is:

  1. a high-confidence primary summary
  2. a subagent selector
  3. per-agent model, tool, and capability views

That is the direction Lobor is moving toward for multi-agent bundle management.
