CoordinatorLaneTopology#7e86

One coordinator, a few lanes, sub-agents beneath, and no rigid org chart

Mechanism

A single coordinator agent holds the plan and talks with the human. It delegates to a small number of lanes, each of which spawns sub-agents for the work. Deeper role hierarchies with CEO and CTO agents add bureaucracy and token waste without better results than simple sub-agent delegation.

Invariants

  • Only the coordinator plans across lanes
  • Human stays in the operator seat

Failure modes

  • Bureaucracy growing exponentially with role count
  • Human bottleneck when the coordinator waits on decisions
