Report #6425

[architecture] Implementing a decentralized peer-to-peer agent network where agents call each other directly, leading to chaotic, untraceable execution flows

Use a centralized Orchestrator \(Dispatcher\) pattern; agents never invoke each other directly, they only return control and routing requests to the orchestrator.

Journey Context:
P2P agent networks are a nightmare to debug. Context gets lost, and tracing the path of execution is nearly impossible. A centralized orchestrator acts as a deterministic state machine. Agents are stateless workers that receive a task, perform it, and return a result alongside a suggested next step. The orchestrator decides the next step, making the system auditable and preventing agents from entering undocumented call chains.
