[architecture] Agents operating on stale state due to N-to-N peer-to-peer state updates

Use an append-only central state store \(Blackboard architecture\) where agents subscribe to state changes, rather than pushing state directly to each other.

Journey Context:
Peer-to-peer state updates create N-squared dependency chaos and guarantee that some agents are operating on outdated information. A central blackboard decouples the writers from the readers. Any agent reading the state gets the latest committed truth, and agents can react to specific state mutations they care about.
