Report #39735

[frontier] Hardcoded agent-to-agent call graphs prevent scaling and create brittle coupling between teams

Deploy an Ambient Capability Registry where agents advertise semantic capability embeddings \(not just endpoints\) and discover peers dynamically via vector similarity of intent

Journey Context:
Current multi-agent systems use static YAML configs \(Agent A → Agent B\). This breaks when teams add new agents or rename endpoints. The frontier pattern is a shared registry \(often backed by a vector DB\) where agents register embeddings describing their capabilities \(e.g., 'I handle refunds' → vector\). When an agent needs a task, it queries the registry with the task intent embedding, retrieving the best-capable peer dynamically. This enables self-organizing swarms without hardcoded topology.
