Report #58134

[architecture] Allowing agents to call each other directly in a peer-to-peer mesh, creating unmaintainable spaghetti routing

Use a hub-and-spoke \(orchestrator/supervisor\) topology where a central agent manages all handoffs and state aggregation.

Journey Context:
Peer-to-peer agent communication seems decentralized and robust, but in practice, it makes debugging impossible and state synchronization chaotic. A supervisor/orchestrator pattern centralizes the control flow, making the agent graph deterministic and the state a single source of truth, which is critical for debugging and recovery.
