A practical example
Example: a campaign workflow uses a research agent to gather account context, a writing agent to draft the email sequence and a compliance agent to check claims against approved messaging before anything reaches a human for final approval.
What to evaluate before investing
- Ask how agents exchange context: shared memory, structured handoffs or free-text passing, and what gets lost at each handoff.
- Test failure isolation: if one agent fails or returns poor output, does the pipeline stop or continue with degraded results?
- Check observability: can you see each agent's input and output separately to locate where quality broke down?
Limitations and tradeoffs
More agents mean more moving parts; a well-tuned single agent often outperforms a poorly designed multi-agent chain on the same task.
