 ## Architecture
 
-Agency uses a daemon + client architecture. The daemon manages all PTY sessions that run the agents. Clients (CLI or TUI) communicate with the daemon via a Unix socket.
+Agency uses a daemon + client architecture with tmux-managed sessions. The daemon is slim: it computes session/task status from tmux and broadcasts notifications. Clients (CLI or TUI) communicate with the daemon via a Unix socket but attach directly to tmux for interactive views.
