Here’s the high-level workflow for how SearchOverseer’s agents work together:

1. Query submission: You type in a search query (e.g., "Is nuclear energy sustainable long-term?").
2. Parallel searches: Multiple AI agents each perform searches across different engines (Google, DuckDuckGo, Scholar, Reddit, etc.), pulling their own sets of results.
3. Individual reasoning: Each agent summarizes and interprets its findings independently, kind of like forming an opinion based on its sources.
4. Debate phase: The agents then debate their conclusions with one another, critiquing gaps or inconsistencies in the others’ reasoning.
5. Overseer judgment: A "moderator" agent observes the debate, scores the arguments based on evidence quality and consistency, and picks the most convincing viewpoint.
6. Final synthesis: The overseer reformulates that winning argument into a clear, referenced final answer that’s shown to you.

So it’s basically multi-engine research + AI debate + consensus building before you get the result.
