An agent is a capability with a boundary.
Anything can be given a job title and a personality. What makes an agent infrastructure is the opposite — a defined scope, approved tools, a named output, and a hard limit on what it may do without a human.
Every Synthos agent carries four things: an authority tier, a tool set, a required input, and a specific artifact it produces. Nothing runs outside those four.
Four tiers. An agent can never act above its own.
Seven of the nine agents cannot reach a customer under any configuration. That is a property of the system, not a setting.

Growth is the module that's live.
These nine cover how a company finds, wins and keeps customers. That's the module running today, because it's the one with a paying customer in front of it.
The primitives underneath — authority tiers, approval gates, the record, the Verifier — are not marketing-specific. Operations, finance and support modules run on the same four. They ship when a client is paying for them, not before.
