Feature: Triad Agent Architecture — Architect, Operator & Sentry agents

[Dr-Agentic]

Motivation

SpurTalk targets procrastinators who need multi-dimensional support, not just a single bot. The Triad Agent Architecture provides three specialized agents, each handling a distinct layer of the procrastination problem:

• Architect Agent — Handles project structure, sprint planning, and root-cause problem solving when users hit plateaus.
• Operator Agent — Handles environment design, friction reduction, and proactive nudges before high-risk moments.
• Sentry Agent — Handles mindset coaching, CBT-based motivation, and if/then planning after setbacks.

Proposed Behavior

Architect Agent

• Breaks user projects into 2-week sprints with clear milestones
• Tracks moving averages to ignore daily fluctuations
• Runs root-cause analysis when user reports stagnation — adjusts approach mathematically

Operator Agent

• Monitors user context (time, location patterns, calendar signals)
• Sends proactive nudges before the user enters a high-friction situation

Sentry Agent

• Never shames. Asks: What was the friction point? after missed tasks
• Helps draft if/then plans (e.g., If tired after work, do 10-min stretch, not zero)
• Celebrates Non-Scale Victories to decouple motivation from a single metric

Where Architect Lives in SpurTalk: new SprintService + KPIService in backend/src/services/. Extends /api/tasks routes. New Sprint Panel UI in dashboard.

How It Slots In:

1. Onboarding: Architect asks 'What is your main goal?' - breaks into 2-week sprints
2. Tasks wrapped in sprint metadata (sprintId, architectNotes)
3. Weekly Architect digest: completion rate, root-cause alerts, macro-drift detection
4. Plateau triggers root-cause probe via inline chat card

Dependencies: Uses existing task service + schema. Requires Prisma migration for Sprint model.
