Summary

Key Findings

Enhancement Original Priority Revised Priority Rationale
Graph-based dependency resolution P0 (~4h) P0 (~3h) Approach changed: graph as AI context, not execution control
Execution waves for batches P1 (~6h) P2 (~6h) AI approximates wave behavior with graph context
Make blocks: functional P2 (~1h) P0 (~30min) Bundled with Enhancement 1
Dependency visualization P2 (~3h) P1 (~2h) AI decisions need observability

Recommendation

Implement Enhancement 1 + 3 as a single PR (~3.5h): build a dependency graph from blocked-by:/blocks: fields, add cycle detection and blocker validation, inject as structured context for AI dispatch decisions.

Evidence

  • auto_unblock_resolved_tasks() at todo-sync.sh:1157-1291 is unchanged — still grep-based string matching
  • 261 lines in TODO.md use blocked-by:, 9 use blocks: — dependency system is heavily used
  • t1311 itself was stuck for days due to malformed blocked-by: that a graph validator would have caught in one pulse
  • Supervisor grew from 35,741 to 36,526 lines (+785) during AI-first migration

Closes #2135

Review the original opus-tier research (PR #2235) in light of the
AI-first supervisor migration (t1312-t1321). Key findings:

- Original gap analysis remains accurate post-migration
- Enhancement 1 (graph-based deps) elevated: graph as AI context
  improves dispatch decisions more than mechanical execution control
- Enhancement 2 (waves) deprioritized: AI approximates wave behavior
- Enhancement 4 (visualization) elevated: AI decisions need observability
- Concrete evidence: t1311 itself was stuck by malformed blocked-by
  that a graph validator would have caught in one pulse

Recommend: implement Enhancement 1+3 as single PR (~3.5h).

Summary of Changes

Hello @marcusquinn, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request provides a post-migration review of the swarm DAG research, updating priorities and recommendations based on the supervisor's AI-first migration. It emphasizes integrating a dependency graph as AI context to improve dispatch decisions and catch data quality issues, while deferring other enhancements.

Highlights

  • Post-Migration Review: This PR reviews the original swarm DAG research against the post-AI-migration supervisor codebase, reassessing the proposed enhancements.
  • Revised Priorities: The priority of enhancements has been revised based on the AI-first migration, with graph-based dependency resolution and making blocks: functional now considered P0.
  • Recommendation: The PR recommends implementing Enhancement 1 (graph-based dependency resolution) and Enhancement 3 (make blocks: functional) as a single PR, focusing on AI context and data quality.
Changelog
  • todo/tasks/t1311-swarm-dag-research.md
    • Added a section for post-migration review of swarm DAG research.
    • Reassessed the priority of enhancements based on the AI-first migration.
    • Recommended implementing graph-based dependency resolution and making blocks: functional as a single PR.
    • Included concrete evidence of the need for cycle detection.
    • Suggested deferring enhancements related to execution waves and dependency visualization.

🤖 Augment PR Summary

Summary: Updates the t1311 swarm DAG research doc with a post-AI-migration reassessment of the proposed dependency/DAG enhancements.

Changes:

  • Fixes a markdown lint issue (MD040) by adding a language tag (text) to a fenced pseudocode block.
  • Adds Section 9 (2026-02-25) describing what changed during the AI-first supervisor migration and how that affects the original conclusions.
  • Reprioritizes the four enhancements, reframing graph construction as structured AI context (plus validation) rather than as an execution controller.

Technical Notes: Recommends building a dependency graph from blocked-by:/blocks: for cycle/reference validation and injecting the resulting summary into ai-context.sh to improve dispatch decisions.

On GitHub, a single newline inside a paragraph is typically rendered as a space, so the **Reviewer:** and **Context:** lines may display as one paragraph; consider separating them with a blank line or formatting them as a list for consistent rendering.

This is the highest-value, lowest-risk change. It doesn't modify the existing unblocking or dispatch mechanics — it adds a read-only analysis layer that improves AI decision quality and catches data quality issues.

**Defer Enhancements 2 and 4** until Enhancement 1 is proven in production. Enhancement 4 (visualization) is a natural follow-up once the graph builder exists.

Section 9.3 labels Enhancement 4 as P1/“Elevated”, but Section 9.5 says “Defer Enhancements 2 and 4”; consider clarifying whether 4 is simply “next after 1+3” vs being fully deferred to avoid mixed priority signals.
