Live Agent Orchestra
A real-time console that fans one goal out to parallel agents, then ships only the findings that survive verification.
The problem
A single agent asked a broad question returns a confident, unsourced essay. Fanning the work out to several agents multiplies the speed and the confidence — and multiplies the fabrications right along with it, because nothing in the middle is checking.
What I built
Plan — decompose the goal
One goal goes in and is broken into distinct subtasks, checked for overlap so two agents never research the same thing.
Work — fan out in parallel
Cartographer, Listener and Appraiser run concurrently against live web sources, each returning findings with the source attached.
Verify — block the weak
Every finding is re-checked against its cited source at a gate. Anything that cannot be traced is marked blocked and does not continue.
Synthesize — merge the survivors
Only findings that passed the gate reach the brief, and each one keeps its citation through to the final output.
The verification gate fails closed: a finding that cannot be traced to its source is blocked rather than passed through. An earlier build of this gate failed open — it let unverifiable findings reach the brief — which is exactly the failure mode the gate exists to catch, and why it is now tested for.
