A multi-agent system coordinates several specialized agents to solve a complex task collaboratively. An orchestrator or moderator keeps their work synchronized and integrates their outputs. section 9.1.2
The pattern is useful when a task benefits from:
- Parallel analysis, with agents handling different perspectives or capabilities. section 9.1.2
- Delegated reasoning, where an orchestrator coordinates specialized contributions. section 9.1.2
- Diverse judgments, which can make deliberation more robust than relying on one viewpoint. section 9.1.2
Stock buy deliberation
An optimist argues from growth, profitability, and momentum; a skeptic examines downside risk, macroeconomic headwinds, and overvaluation; an adjudicator weighs both arguments and produces the recommendation. section 9.1.2
