A 2026 pattern-language synthesis argues every dependable orchestration decomposes into producer, consumer, coordinator, critic, and judge. The value is diagnostic: map each agent to a role and you immediately spot missing accountability, usually a missing critic or judge before an irreversible action. Combine this with the contagion finding and the move is obvious. Add an explicit critic and judge, and make sure they're not the same biased evaluator copied twice.
