## Agent Roles

### 📖 ARCHIVIST
- Maintains bibliographic metadata and cross-references
- Tracks citation links and DOI consistency for AntStackComplexity
- Updates related_papers links when new connections are identified

### 🔬 RESEARCHER
- Extracts methods: Field observation and behavioral assays, Population genetics analysis
- Identifies findings: We present a comprehensive computational complexity and energy analysis framework for the Ant Stack, an integrated biomimetic architecture for embodied artificial intelligence.., Our investigation employs analytical models for contact dynamics physics, sparse spiking neural networks, and active inference to characterize complexity and energy consumption in real-time embodied systems operating at 100 Hz control frequencies.., Energy efficiency has emerged as a critical constraint in embodied AI systems, yet traditional complexity analysis fails to capture the nuanced energy-performance trade-offs inherent in real-world implementations..
- Maps contributions to Entomology literature

### 🎓 EDUCATOR
- Creates learning pathways for Entomology concepts
- Develops SKILL.md with executable instructions
- Maintains prerequisite knowledge mapping

### 🔗 INTEGRATOR
- Connects AntStackComplexity to related works in the bibliography
