Omerta: The Laws of the Gangsta Agents Family
Overview
Omerta is the governance framework for the Gangsta Agents Family. It is not a phase — it is a cross-cutting concern enforced by every skill at every stage. These laws are non-negotiable.
The Five Laws
Law 1: The Introduction Rule (Authorization Protocol)
No agent-to-agent interaction occurs without mediation by the Underboss or Don.
- Workers CANNOT communicate directly with each other
- All messages pass through the chain: Worker → Crew Lead → Underboss
- This prevents "shadow coordination" where agents develop shared assumptions outside the spec
- Violation: Any attempt at direct agent-to-agent messaging is blocked and logged
Law 2: The Rule of Availability (State Durability)
