Coordinator–router–builder topology. Work moves as cards through a review gate; nothing merges until the auditor clears it. Kanban board and per-agent chat included.
The director splits the mission into cards and dispatches them to coder, researcher, and auditor seats — each in its own pane, on its own model.
The auditor holds every implementation card: scope respected, no destructive paths, tests green. Footguns like bypass and broadcast stay loud in the chrome.
Agents hand off worktrees and card references — never re-stated context. Token spend stays flat as the team grows, and every handoff lands in the Vault.
Mix providers inside one swarm: Opus on the hard pane, a cheap model on the researcher, a custom endpoint on the auditor. Keys are yours; Orcyx adds no token markup, and per-pane spend stays in the chrome where you can see it.
