[frontier] Hard-coded agent-to-agent communication breaks when capabilities evolve

Use the Model Context Protocol \(MCP\) not just for tools, but as a service mesh: have agents expose their capabilities via MCP 'resources' endpoints. Other agents discover these at runtime using 'resources/list' and negotiate contracts dynamically rather than using static DAGs.

Journey Context:
Current multi-agent systems use orchestrator code that imports agent classes directly. This creates brittle coupling. By treating MCP as the agent equivalent of DNS-SD \+ HTTP, agents become loosely coupled services that advertise their schemas \(inputs/outputs\) via protocol introspection, enabling dynamic team formation without code changes.
