Intelligent Delegation Framework

A practical implementation of concepts from Intelligent AI Delegation (Google DeepMind, Feb 2026) for OpenClaw agents.

The Problem

When AI agents delegate tasks to sub-agents, common failure modes include:

• Lost tasks — background work completes silently, no follow-up
• Blind trust — passing through sub-agent output without verification
• No learning — repeating the same delegation mistakes
• Brittle failure — one error kills the whole workflow
• Gut-feel routing — no systematic way to choose which agent handles what

The Solution: 5 Phases

Phase 1: Task Tracking & Scheduled Checks

Problem: "I'll ping you when it's done" → never happens.
