No Central Orchestrator
Agents discover peers and converge locally. There is no single dispatcher hidden in the loop.

BLACKOUT EXCHANGE simulates a degraded emergency mesh where heterogeneous agents discover peers, negotiate task ownership locally, self-heal after failures, and reject malicious completions before any value transfer.
Runtime is deterministic simulation for reliable demos. Architecture boundaries are production-ready for real protocol adapters.

Failover Under Active Faults
When executors drop offline, backup candidates continue work through local reassignment.
Adversarial Rejection
Fake completion claims are isolated by verifier agents before settlement can proceed.
Proof-Before-Payment
Settlement receipts unlock only after witness evidence + verifier quorum are satisfied.
