Report #54983

[frontier] How do I route tasks between specialized agents without creating a central supervisor bottleneck?

Implement handoff patterns where agents use lightweight embedding-based intent classifiers to route to peers, combined with semantic guards that verify the receiving agent's output actually satisfies the original intent before finalizing.

Journey Context:
Central supervisor agents become latency bottlenecks and single points of failure. Pure handoffs \(like OpenAI's Swarm\) can route to wrong agents. The fix combines fast vector-similarity intent detection for routing with a validation step \(semantic guard\) that checks output relevance against the original query vector, ensuring accuracy without central coordination.
