Critical Issues (🔴 Must Fix)

  1. Unbounded Cache Growth (RuvLLMOrchestrator.ts:83)

    • Memory leak in production
    • Fix: LRU cache with max size

  2. Repeated Embeddings (Multiple files)

    • 10-20ms wasted per duplicate task
    • Fix: Embedding cache (50-70% hit rate)

  3. O(N) Brute-Force Search (SemanticRouter.ts:294-309)

    • Scales poorly beyond 100 agents
    • Fix: HNSW index (future) or optimizations (now)

Expected Improvements
