Report #39576
[frontier] Hard-coded multi-agent orchestration failing when agents have varying available tools
Exchange MCP capability descriptors during initialization to dynamically route tasks based on real-time availability
Journey Context:
Static DAGs assume fixed capabilities. In production, agents may be running different model versions or have tools disabled due to rate limits. The MCP protocol includes a 'capabilities' object in initialization. Emerging patterns use this to advertise available tools, prompting strategies, and resource types. Agents then use a lightweight consensus protocol to determine which agent in a mesh should handle a specific sub-task based on real-time capability availability rather than static configuration.
