This paper introduces a framework for recursive autonomous agents (RAAs) designed to manage complex production objectives in smart factories. The system enables top-down decomposition of tasks and bottom-up aggregation of capabilities through peer collaboration, allowing composite units to function as agents at higher organizational levels. The framework details organizational models for individual and composite units, focusing on interface closure and conditions for task expansion. An operational mechanism links task decomposition, resource commitments, result aggregation, and coordination, illustrated by a production network integrating machining, inspection, and logistics across multiple workshops.
