This PR updates the agent ecosystem research artifacts to include recent developments regarding MetaGPT.

It integrates MetaGPT's unique SOP-driven approach into the agent-ecosystem-report.md framework analysis. Consequently, it translates these capabilities into new benchmark dimensions within agent-eval-insights.md, specifically introducing SOP Adherence metrics, the SOP Deviation Rate (SDR), and a new metagpt_full_stack_poc test case for the team's backlog.

Walkthrough

Two research documentation files were updated to incorporate MetaGPT information: an ecosystem report received a new section detailing MetaGPT's SOP-driven "software company simulation" paradigm and use cases; concurrently, an evaluation insights document was enhanced with SOP-specific metrics and a corresponding test case for MetaGPT.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Documentation: Agent Ecosystem & Evaluation
docs/research/agent-ecosystem-report.md, docs/research/agent-eval-insights.md
Added MetaGPT to ecosystem report with role-based agents and SOP-driven execution; introduced SOP Adherence metric, SDR (SOP Deviation Rate) measure, and metagpt_full_stack_poc test case in evaluation document. Extended next steps with MetaGPT adapter and SOP metric implementation tasks.

### 7. MetaGPT

MetaGPT is a multi-agent framework purpose-built to automate software development. It simulates a full-stack product team—PMs, tech leads, developers, and analysts—as coordinated AI agents for business automation that follow standardized engineering workflows.

- **Core Paradigm:** Software company simulation (SOP-driven multi-agent system).
- **Key Capabilities:**
- **Role-based agents:** Simulates a full software team: PM, Architect, Engineer.
- **Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs):** Embeds human workflows into agent operations for structured outputs.
- **End-to-End Development:** Capable of handling requirements to fully working code.
- **Best Use Cases:** Early-stage ideation, Proof-of-Concept (PoC) development, or augmenting engineering capacity.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Update the executive summary count to match this new section.

Adding ### 7. MetaGPT makes the document cover seven frameworks, but the executive summary still says “Six prominent frameworks.” Please align that count/list for internal consistency.

P2 Badge Place MetaGPT in the framework analysis section

The new ### 7. MetaGPT block is inserted after ## Industry Trends & Next Steps, which makes it a subsection of Industry Trends rather than part of ## Framework Analysis & Capabilities. That hierarchy change makes the report internally inconsistent (the executive summary still states six dominant frameworks) and can cause readers or any heading-based extraction to miss MetaGPT from the actual framework comparison. Move this section back under the framework analysis block (or adjust headings and summary text together).

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Code Review

This pull request introduces MetaGPT to the agent ecosystem research report, detailing its capabilities as a multi-agent framework for software development. It also updates the agent evaluation insights document by adding new metrics (SOP Adherence, SOP Deviation Rate) and a specific test case (metagpt_full_stack_poc) for MetaGPT, along with corresponding next steps. Feedback includes ensuring consistency in role descriptions for MetaGPT in the ecosystem report and improving the logical grouping of metrics and test cases in the evaluation insights document for better readability.

The roles listed here (PM, Architect, Engineer) are inconsistent with the roles mentioned in the description on line 92 (PMs, tech leads, developers, and analysts). To improve clarity and avoid confusion, it's best to ensure these descriptions are aligned.

Suggested change
- **Role-based agents:** Simulates a full software team: PM, Architect, Engineer.

For better readability and logical grouping, consider placing the related metrics SOP Adherence and SOP Deviation Rate (SDR) together, before the test case details.
