## Advanced Usage

### Changing Swarm Types

You can create multiple SwarmRouter instances with different swarm types:

```python
sequential_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="SequentialRouter",
    agents=[agent1, agent2],
    swarm_type="SequentialWorkflow"
)

concurrent_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="ConcurrentRouter",
    agents=[agent1, agent2],
    swarm_type="ConcurrentWorkflow"
)
```

### Automatic Swarm Type Selection

You can let the SwarmRouter automatically select the best swarm type for a given task:

```python
auto_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="AutoRouter",
    agents=[agent1, agent2],
    swarm_type="auto"
)

result = auto_router.run("Analyze and summarize the quarterly financial report")
```

### Loading Agents from CSV

```python
csv_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="CSVAgentRouter",
    load_agents_from_csv=True,
    csv_file_path="agents.csv",
    swarm_type="SequentialWorkflow"
)

result = csv_router.run("Process the client data")

```python
rules = """
1. Always provide sources for your information
2. Check your calculations twice
3. Explain your reasoning clearly
4. Highlight uncertainties and assumptions
"""

rules_router = SwarmRouter(
    name="RulesRouter",
