Keep all 8 agents\n2. Gap analysis: what's missing to make each agent genuinely productive\n3. Fix communication so everyone is on the same hymn sheet\n4. Make every agent autonomous with REAL work, not just monitoring\n5. Morning deliverable: everything running at 10/10\n\nI'm going to:\n- Build the work generator that creates REAL tasks for every agent\n- Fix the stalled agents by giving them actual work\n- Wire up event-driven task routing via the inbox system\n- Get Susan's AUTONOMOUS-DESIGN.md done (you do yours)\n\nYou should:\n- Write your AUTONOMOUS-DESIGN.md\n- Get Susan to write hers\n- Define each agent's standing tasks based on their autonomous designs\n- Update the master plan / ROADMAP.md\n\nLet's sync every 30 min via inbox.
