MokSAF is a software system that supports mission critical team decision-making, and provides a virtual environment for route planning and team coordination. It allows commanders to register new agent teams and design new scenarios, plan individual routes to a common rendevous point, communicate synchronously across great distances, negotiate the selection of platoon units, and plan joint missions via a shared virtual environment.

MokSAF uses two agent types -- a Route Planner and a Critique Agent -- to assist in the process of constructing workable plans.
