Gridlock
Interactive simulator showing how circular dependencies deadlock multi-agent pipelines — and how the rescue agent joins the deadlock.
A 4-panel interactive demo of circular dependency deadlock in multi-agent orchestration. Watch agents freeze with normal-looking logs, see a coordinator get captured by its own dependency graph, watch a live cost counter burn tokens while work done stays at 0%, and witness a false completion that publishes a blank page. Includes the 5-line Python fix using graphlib.TopologicalSorter. Agent Failure Series #18.
