Report #48676

[frontier] Static handoff graphs are too rigid for complex, emergent workflows

Implement intent-based semantic handoffs. Agents advertise capability embeddings \(intent vectors\); the router embeds the current context and uses vector similarity to select the next agent, not hardcoded edges.

Journey Context:
OpenAI Swarm introduced handoffs, but production workflows need dynamic routing. Instead of \`if task == 'coding': handoff\(coder\)\`, agents register intent signatures \(e.g., 'debugging', 'refactoring'\). The router performs semantic similarity between the current context embedding and agent capability embeddings. This allows emergent workflows not pre-programmed in the graph, handling novel request types by composing agents dynamically.
