[architecture] Untraceable workflows and lost context in peer-to-peer agent networks

Use a hub-and-spoke \(orchestrator\) topology or a centralized state graph \(DAG\) where a manager agent delegates, synthesizes, and controls the flow.

Journey Context:
Peer-to-peer agent communication sounds decentralized and robust, but in practice, it leads to untraceable spaghetti workflows where no single entity knows the overall progress. An orchestrator provides a single source of truth for workflow state, makes debugging deterministic, and ensures that the final output is synthesized coherently rather than fragmented across isolated agent pairs.
