Search and recommendation serve a shared discovery objective but encode intent differently. We study this boundary through Dear Algo on Threads, a deployed product where open-ended requests such as \emph{more NBA news} or \emph{less politics} steer subsequent feed recommendations rather than return a one-shot result list. Its agentic intent layer compiles explicit, inferred, negative, and compound intent into a grounded executable plan, then invokes conventional retrieval and optional semantic or multimodal reranking. The layer shares an intent-to-retrieval contract without requiring one model or serving path across search-like and recommendation-like modes. We evaluate Dear Algo under a precision-first objective. In a blinded audit of 300 public request-item pairs (296 evaluable), a strict categorical LLM-as-a-judge gate achieved 94.4\% exact-Relevant precision [88.8\%, 98.9\%]. Across 72 normalized request clusters, the full configuration produced 7.73 judge-qualified candidates per 20 slots versus 6.61 for an LLM-derived-query baseline, a gain of 1.11 [0.12, 2.12]. In a candidate-randomized serving-path study restricted to the reranker path's first 72 eligible hours, the user-weighted judge-Irrelevant share among judged admissions was 2.80\% versus 4.78\% off (-1.97 points [-3.02, -0.94]), while Exact-Relevant share was 2.24 points higher [0.08, 4.41]. Together, these studies show how explicit natural-language intent can be carried into feed recommendation under a precision-first evaluation framework

Recent multi-agent LLM systems increasingly rely on graph-structured communication to coordinate specialized agents. We revisit multi-agent orchestration from a graph-engineering perspective: rather than optimizing a static topology, we synthesize a task-conditioned temporal workflow graph that jointly specifies agent connectivity and edge-level communication semantics. We introduce ReActNet, a training-free framework that compiles a query and a set of role-specialized agents into a sequence of directed communication graphs. Each graph snapshot corresponds to one reasoning stage, and each edge carries a natural-language instruction specifying the message that a source agent should provide to a target agent. The compiled temporal graph is then executed through structured message passing: agents update their reasoning states by integrating their previous states with messages from controller-assigned neighbors, and a final aggregator synthesizes the resulting states into the answer. This design separates graph compilation from graph execution, making multi-agent coordination explicit, inspectable, and task-conditioned without requiring reinforcement learning or gradient-based topology optimization. Across knowledge reasoning, mathematical problem solving, code generation, and GAIA-style assistant tasks, ReActNet consistently improves over fixed-topology and learned-topology baselines while maintaining competitive inference cost. These results suggest that effective multi-agent orchestration depends not only on which agents communicate, but also on engineering executable workflow graphs that encode when, why, and how information should flow during reasoning.
