TraceLogger produces JSONL audit logs per research() call:
- One file per trace_id at ~/.marchwarden/traces/{trace_id}.jsonl
- Each line is a self-contained JSON object (step, action, timestamp, decision)
- Supports arbitrary kwargs (url, content_hash, query, etc.)
- Lazy file handle, flush after each write, context manager support
- read_entries() for replay and testing
15 tests: file creation, step counting, JSONL validity, kwargs,
timestamps, flush behavior, multiple independent traces.

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.
