Consensus Mechanisms Overview Implement distributed consensus among agent swarms. Select the appropriate protocol based on fault tolerance requirements, swarm size, and communication topology. When to Use - Multiple agents have produced independent solutions needing reconciliation - Byzantine fault tolerance is required (untrusted or unreliable agents) - State synchronization across distributed agent swarms - Conflict-free data merging in concurrent operations Protocols | Protocol | Use Case | Fault Tolerance | Complexity | |----------|----------|-----------------|------------| | Raft | Leade…
