This work employs Design Science Research to investigate orchestration patterns for LLM-based autonomous agents in the domain of Brazilian government transparency. The resulting artifact — Cidadão.AI — is a platform with 17 specialized agents (named after Brazilian historical figures) that integrates natural language processing, multi-agent architecture, and large language models to democratize access to public data.

The platform processes over 30 federal and state transparency APIs, performing semantic routing via BERTimbau embeddings, contract classification with fine-tuned models, anomaly detection through FFT spectral analysis, and RAG with tri-layer caching.
