Report #71918

[frontier] Agent topology hardcoded; adding new agent requires config changes everywhere

Use MCP capability negotiation to advertise schemas; implement gossip protocol or lightweight DHT for dynamic discovery, treating capability hashes as service keys

Journey Context:
Kubernetes-style service discovery is too heavy for edge agents. Hardcoded topologies break at scale. The frontier pattern is agents exposing capability manifests \(via MCP\) and using gossip or consistent hashing to find peers. This creates 'swarm intelligence' where the mesh self-organizes. A new agent joins, advertises its capabilities via MCP handshake, and others route to it dynamically without central config.
