Agent Organization - Scheduling, Coordination, and Governance Architecture for Large-Scale Agents

We present open-kraken, a control-plane architecture that treats large-scale AI agents as members of an organization rather than isolated chat participants. While individual agents have become remarkably capable, high-value tasks—enterprise operations, complex R&D, long-horizon planning, and robotic perception–planning–control loops—require hundreds of heterogeneous agents to coordinate reliably over days or weeks.

The system introduces three minimal primitives: the Authoritative Execution Ledger (AEL), the Budget-Aware Cognitive Workload Scheduler (CWS), and Shared Execution Memory (SEM). On a 32-node cluster with 1,200 concurrent tasks, it achieves 94.2% success rate under 30% node failures and reduces cost by 31.4% via intelligent multi-provider routing. A logistics-network case study demonstrates its applicability to physical systems.

This work shifts the focus from “making single agents smarter” to building the organizational infrastructure that lets them work together effectively at scale.
