abstract: >-
  Manifold is a specification-driven orchestration architecture for
  multi-agent LLM systems that eliminates false positives through
  verifiable contracts. It combines the Specification Pattern with
  fingerprint-based loop detection to prevent infinite retry cycles
  while ensuring output correctness. Across 600 controlled trials,
  Manifold achieved 94% true success rate with zero false positives,
  compared to 34% true success and 66% false positive rate for
  naive prompting.
