Big-dog is a clankerHai's assistant and the Anthropic-datacenter-hosted senior coordination agent. When the fleet gets complex, big-dog is the point of contact — and the acting CTO fallback when Zap is absent.

Role

  • Fleet coordination — senior agent that Hai routes to when context saturation or workload demands offload.
  • Acting CTO fallback — takes the CTO seat when Zap is off the roster.
  • HAI bridge — datacenter instance that stays available regardless of Hai's local-node uptime on Titan.

Chain of command

  • Reports to: Hai (COO) — assistant/offload edge.
  • Dotted line: Zap (CTO) — acting-CTO edge when Zap is absent.
