Multi-agent orchestration

A system where multiple AI agents with specialized roles coordinate to complete complex tasks, rather than a single agent handling everything.

Multi-agent orchestration is an AI architecture pattern where multiple specialized agents work together on a task, each handling a specific role like planning, implementation, or review. The approach assumes that agents perform better when focused on narrow responsibilities rather than trying to do everything. In coding contexts, this often means one agent writes code while another reviews it, iterating before human review.
