Long-horizon multi-agent systems suffer from three tightly coupled failures: task drift, role drift, and state staleness. We test the hypothesis that these share a common representational cause: agent hidden states move away from the directions encoding the active task, assigned role, and current shared state. A pilot study over 14,832 annotated turns supports this: drifted turns collapse near-uniformly across all three anchor subspaces (pairwise r = 0.72-0.78). Existing methods address these failures separately, operating at the surface-text level or treating control directions independently. We introduce ATLAS (Algebraic Task-role Locking with Adaptive Spectral Memory), a training-free intervention acting on hidden states before a token is generated. ATLAS builds a positive-semidefinite anchor kernel over task, role, and state subspaces and steers hidden states toward their shared high-coherence eigendirections; a low-rank Gram decomposition keeps this tractable. Across long-horizon memory, state maintenance, tool use, least-privilege coordination, and embodied stress tests, ATLAS outperforms prompting, retrieval, memory, and activation-steering baselines. Against A-MEM it improves memory macro-average accuracy by up to 5.7 points and reduces write/read failures by up to 31.7%/24.8%; against MemoryArena-Agent it gains up to 4.8 points. It gains 10.7-12.1 points under perturbation, reaches 93.5% role consistency, and transfers to a 72B backbone (macro-average 61.0 vs. 56.2). Ablating the joint task-role-state span costs 7.2 points against 0.8 for a matched-rank random span, indicating these directions are functionally implicated, not incidental; supplying them by prompt or retrieval recovers 4.3 points less. ATLAS is therefore a representation-level controller for open-weight multi-agent systems, complementary to output-level protocols for black-box agents.
