DeepSeek super agent AI Router design compared to Octomind

The author examines DeepSeek's 'super agent AI' design, which separates task intake and routing from code execution using a durable Router and disposable Workers. Comparing this architecture to Octomind, the article argues that structural tool boundaries are more effective for enforcing task delegation than prompt instructions alone. The author also analyzes the synthetic scheduling evidence provided in DeepSeek's design essay and outlines practical steps for implementing permission boundaries and code-filtered event hooks.
