The nine agent colleagues
Nine agent colleagues read the outside world on Trellis Meriden's behalf so no colleague has to hunt for a trigger. They draft. Named colleagues decide.
The outside-in layer. Each agent colleague owns a role, a set of sources and a refresh cadence. Signal Agent, Priority Agent, Organisation Profile Agent, Relationship Agent, Radar Agent, Competitor Watch Agent, Readiness Agent, Content Agent and Events Agent. Each one carries a working name too. Harbour Dining, Ledger, Cartograph, Envoy, Steward, Rival, Roster, Herald and Beacon.
