Description
Stub Epic for additional must-have (high priority).
Multi-agent orchestration + delegation surfaces (v1.0.0)
Specialized agents (planner, implementer, reviewer, researcher, deployer, market monitor, etc.) with first-class delegation, coordination, shared narrow context packets, and scheduling under the AutonomyEngine.
- Explicit delegation contracts and handoff points
- Fleet coordination without hidden state (GitHub as truth)
- Budgeting and risk allocation across agents
- plate_delegate_to_agent evolution + MCP surfaces
Parent / Roadmap: #654 (primary), #627
Example "endless feed" user story / flow (multi-agent)
- User expresses high-level intent in chat: "Plan the next release and start implementing the top 2 features autonomously where safe."
- Primary agent (orchestrator) does initial Q&A or consults state, then delegates:
- Researcher agent: pulls market signals + discussions → creates Questions/stubs
- Planner agent: runs product/release planning Q&A flow → produces stub Epic + children
- Implementer agent(s): pick up ready Features, use simulation + checkpoints as needed
- Reviewer agent: babysits PRs, summarizes feedback for human
- The endless feed shows aggregated progress + surfaced checkpoints from any agent ("Reviewer agent needs your input on PR #N feedback thread").
- User mostly interacts at decision points; agents hand off cleanly with full provenance.
- Orchestrator monitors overall budget and reports status.
Enables scaling the "mostly opaque" autonomous work while keeping the human in the loop via natural Q&A/Tasks.

Research direction
Start with the parent roadmap issues #654 and #627, then review the AutonomyEngine and the existing plate_delegate_to_agent and MCP surfaces named here. Define the v1.0 delegation, handoff, coordination, budgeting, and provenance scope before identifying implementation files and tests; done means the epic has concrete child tasks and acceptance criteria.
