Agents
Agent Swarm
A multi-agent pattern where many lightweight agents work on sub-tasks simultaneously without a central orchestrator.
In depth
A multi-agent pattern where many lightweight agents work on sub-tasks simultaneously without a central orchestrator. Each agent operates independently on its assigned piece, and results are aggregated when all agents complete. Swarms trade coordination overhead for parallelism, making them effective for tasks that decompose into independent units like testing multiple files, researching multiple topics, or auditing different parts of a codebase.
