End-to-end architecture of the three-layer Action Router stack (Intent Parser, Action Resolver, Gate Controller), with recursive optimization and scaling patterns for 100+ agent deployments
The Action Router Intelligence Theory established that routing must control actions, not classify words. This paper presents the full implementation architecture: a three-layer stack of Intent Parser (context-aware goal extraction), Action Resolver (state-dependent action selection with precondition-effect semantics), and Gate Controller (risk-tiered execution envelopes integrated with MARIA OS governance). We detail a recursive optimization loop in which routing policies learn from execution outcomes, formalized as an online convex optimization problem with O(√T) regret. We then present a scaling architecture for 100+ concurrent agents using coordinate-based sharding, hierarchical action caches, and zone-local resolution. Integration with the MARIA OS Decision Pipeline state machine is formalized as a product automaton. Production benchmarks show sub-30ms P99 latency at 10,000 routing decisions per second, with first-attempt accuracy improving from 93.4% to 97.8% after 30 days of recursive learning.
Formal convergence analysis, delegation-completeness theorems, and safety bounds for voice-mediated multi-agent governance systems
We present the Voice-Driven Agentic Avatar (VDAA) framework, a formal model of voice-mediated intellectual task delegation in multi-agent systems. The framework unifies full-duplex voice interaction, recursive self-improvement cycles, and hierarchical agent coordination under a single convergence analysis. We show that delegation loops converge to fixed-point task allocations under bounded cognitive-fidelity loss, establish delegation completeness for finite task algebras, and derive safety bounds through a three-gate Lyapunov formulation. Evaluation on MARIA VOICE reports 94.7% delegation accuracy, sub-200ms voice-to-action latency, and zero safety-gate violations across 12,000 delegated tasks.
Extending dyadic human-AI co-evolution to societal-scale network dynamics with trust propagation, dependency contagion, phase transitions, and distributed social metacognition
Individual human-AI pair models miss emergent dynamics that appear when many agents interact on complex networks. This paper develops a societal co-evolution framework for trust cascades, dependency contagion, capability hollowing, and phase transitions in AI-augmented organizations, and introduces Social Metacognition as a distributed stabilization mechanism.
How 111 agents across 10 roles self-organize, specialize, and form emergent hierarchies in the AGORA-100 simulation
We analyze role-specialization dynamics in Planet 100 (AGORA-100), a 111-agent governance cluster operating under the MARIA OS coordinate system. Using entropy-based modeling of role allocation and empirical measurements of coordination-complexity scaling, we show that the population exhibits spontaneous hierarchy formation and role consolidation with power-law behavior (alpha = 1.73).
How self-attention enables multi-agent context fusion, decision-log comprehension, and hierarchical organizational reasoning
Transformer architectures are central to enterprise language understanding, but production decision systems require additional design constraints. This paper formalizes transformers as the Cognition Layer (Layer 1) of the agentic company stack, introduces cross-agent attention for organizational context fusion, adapts positional encoding to hierarchical coordinates, and outlines training objectives for decision logs, contracts, meeting notes, and specification documents. In evaluated MARIA OS workloads, coordinate-aware attention reduced cross-agent context fusion error by 34% versus standard multi-head attention, and hierarchical positional encoding improved organizational structure extraction F1 by 28%.
How responsibility gates and zone architecture can shift multi-agent conflicts from defection-prone dynamics toward cooperative equilibria
Multi-agent systems executing tasks in parallel face a quality challenge: conflict rates can grow quadratically with agent count. This paper presents a game-theoretic framework showing how responsibility gates and zone partitioning reduce conflict pressure while retaining high task completion. In evaluated settings, the design reported over 91% conflict-rate reduction with 98.7% task completion.
Quality can scale when boundaries are explicit: a formal model showing architecture, not raw agent count, is the main bottleneck
Multi-agent parallelism can improve throughput but introduces two quality risks uncommon in sequential pipelines: boundary violations (overlapping scopes) and merge failures (integration errors). We derive a total-success model `P(total) = Π(p_i) · (1 - q_merge) · (1 - q_overlap)` and analyze conditions under which quality remains stable as scale increases. The framework highlights that quality depends primarily on architectural contracts (boundary isolation and gate-verified merge contracts), not only on agent count or model capability.
