Jeff Smith 1b0f86399a M0.3: Implement contract v1 Pydantic models with tests
All Research Contract types as Pydantic models:
- ResearchConstraints (input)
- Citation with raw_excerpt (output)
- GapCategory enum (5 categories)
- Gap with structured category (output)
- DiscoveryEvent (lateral findings)
- ConfidenceFactors (auditable scoring inputs)
- CostMetadata with model_id (resource tracking)
- ResearchResult (top-level contract)

32 tests: validation, bounds checking, serialization roundtrips,
JSON structure verification against contract spec.

Marchwarden

A network of agentic research specialists coordinated by a principal investigator agent.

Marchwarden researchers are stationed at the frontier of knowledge — they watch, search, synthesize, and report back what they find. Each specialist is self-contained, fault-tolerant, and exposed via MCP. The PI agent orchestrates them to answer complex, multi-domain questions.

V1: Single web-search researcher + CLI shim for development.
V2+: Multiple specialists (arxiv, database, internal docs, etc.) + PI orchestrator.
