Report #29997

[frontier] Central supervisor agent becomes bottleneck

Use graph topology \(LangGraph\) or swarm patterns where agents communicate directly via message passing through defined edges, not through a central hub.

Journey Context:
Hierarchical supervisor patterns don't scale; the supervisor becomes a single point of failure and context window overflow. Decentralized graphs allow parallel execution, cyclic collaboration, and emergent behavior. Define clear handoff protocols \(schema\) but let the graph topology determine flow, not a mega-prompt.
