Summary
Orchestrating AI agents effectively starts by maximizing a single agent with more tools before splitting into multiple agents. When a single agent buckles under complex logic or tool overload, two patterns emerge: a manager agent that calls specialists as tools, or decentralized handoffs where peers transfer conversations. The key is to keep evaluation and maintenance simple by avoiding premature splitting.
