Overview

This epic implements a two-layer non-AI coordinator architecture that solves:

  1. Quality enforcement problem - Agents claiming done prematurely
  2. Orchestration problem - Context exhaustion preventing autonomous multi-issue completion

Architecture Document

See:

Proof of Concept Goals

The PoC validates the architecture through 4 phases over 4 weeks:

  • Phase 1 (Week 1): Context monitoring and estimation
  • Phase 2 (Week 2): Agent assignment logic
  • Phase 3 (Week 3): Quality gates enforcement
  • Phase 4 (Week 4): Integration and end-to-end testing

Sub-Issues

Phase 1: Context Monitoring

  • COORD-001: Implement context estimator
  • COORD-002: Build basic context monitor
  • COORD-003: Validate 50% rule

Phase 2: Agent Assignment

  • COORD-004: Implement agent profiles
  • COORD-005: Build assignment algorithm
  • COORD-006: Test assignment scenarios

Phase 3: Quality Gates

  • COORD-007: Implement core gates
  • COORD-008: Build Quality Orchestrator service
  • COORD-009: Test rejection loop

Phase 4: Integration

  • COORD-010: Build orchestration loop
  • COORD-011: Implement compaction
  • COORD-012: Implement session rotation
  • COORD-013: End-to-end test

Success Metrics

Metric Target How to Measure
Autonomy 100% completion without human intervention Count of human interventions / total issues
Quality 100% of commits pass quality gates Commits passing gates / total commits
Cost optimization >70% issues use free models Issues on GLM/MiniMax / total issues
Context management 0 agents exceed 95% without rotation Context exhaustion events
Estimation accuracy ±20% of actual usage

Rollout Plan

  • PoC (Weeks 1-4): Standalone Python orchestrator, test with Mosaic Stack M4 remaining issues
  • Production Alpha (Weeks 5-8): Integrate Quality Orchestrator, multi-agent support
  • Production Beta (Weeks 9-12): Self-hosted models, advanced features, monitoring dashboard
