Research direction

Start with the Quick Start and Testing guide, then reproduce the failure using the shown buzz-acp command and logs. Read the buzz-agent configuration handling for BUZZ_AGENT_PROVIDER and trace the relay-mesh error; done means the configured agents initialize successfully or the supported setup is clearly identified.
