Octopus Architecture: Central Brain Dispatching Semi-Autonomous Agent Lanes
June 16, 2026
TorkBot uses a central dispatcher directing long-lived static lanes and instantiable lane templates, each with local reasoning, to balance interaction responsiveness with deep task capability. The design separates bounded-turn surface interactions from long-running delegated work.

builderThe lane-plus-template pattern is a concrete architectural pattern for keeping agent turn latency bounded while supporting unbounded task complexity.
