AssessingAgents

An agentic Assessor's office that independently appraises and exempts properties, producing a fairness-seeking tax roll.

How it works

The engine is an organization of agents. Each has a profile (who they are) and an instruction (what they do this run). A runner reads these files, feeds them to an LLM with the right context and artifacts, and the agents produce the tax roll. This is pure content, not executable code.

Structure

engine/
  organization/
    profiles/          # who each agent is (general, human descriptions)
    instructions/      # what each agent does (mission + outputs per run)
  locations/           # location-specific data fed to runs

Workflow

The numbering encodes the dependency graph. Same depth = run in parallel.
