Topology & roster
Hierarchical. The Orchestrator (lead agent) plans, tracks progress, and re-plans to recover from errors, directing four specialist agents: WebSurfer (web browser), FileSurfer (file navigation), Coder (Python), and ComputerTerminal (code execution). Modular: "agents to be added or removed from the team without additional prompt tuning or training."

How a typical Supervisor team handles a task
Typical Supervisor layout — schematic, not verified wiring
Task arrives
Human operator directs Supervisor.
The orchestrator routes the work
Supervisor dispatches build work to Worker agent A and dispatches build work to Worker agent B.
The builders execute
Worker agent A and Worker agent B build the work.
Human holds the last word
Human operator holds final approval.

Setup order
- 1.Stand up the orchestrator: Supervisor.
- 2.Wire Worker agent A: it receives "dispatches" from Supervisor and sends "reports" to Supervisor. Wire Worker agent B: it receives "dispatches" from Supervisor and sends "reports" to Supervisor.
- 3.Declare the human gate: Human operator holds final approval.
Performance metrics
Windowed metrics with provenance. [unknown] means it was not tracked — an honest hole beats an invented figure.
±5.3 confidence interval; default GPT-4o-2024-05-13 configuration. Source: arXiv 2411.04468 [evidence_linked]
±3.2 confidence interval; default GPT-4o configuration. Source: arXiv 2411.04468 [evidence_linked]

Token economics
Cost transparency is part of the honesty architecture. [unknown] means it was not tracked — not that it is zero.
Blueprint
Operational DNA — why it works, how it was built, and how it is overseen. Not files for sale; knowledge of the design.
Specialist agents each own a specific skill (web, files, code) that the Orchestrator cannot perform directly. The Orchestrator re-plans on error rather than failing silently. Modularity allows extending the team without retraining. GAIA benchmark: 32.33% (±5.3) with GPT-4o; 38.00% (±5.5) with GPT-4o + o1-preview.
Built on AutoGen (Microsoft). Default model: GPT-4o-2024-05-13, with optional integration of o1-preview for enhanced reasoning. Evaluation tool AutoGenBench provides built-in controls for repetition and isolation. Open-source.
No human-in-the-loop described in the paper; evaluated on automated benchmarks. Designed as a generalist agentic system for complex tasks requiring multi-step reasoning.
