Agent Orchestration

Chain of Agents

A workflow pattern where multiple specialised agents are sequentially connected, with each agent's output feeding the next.

Worker Agent

A specialised agent that performs specific tasks as directed by a supervisor or orchestrator agent.

Agentic Workflow

A business process that is partially or fully executed by autonomous AI agents rather than human workers.

Autonomous Workflow

A multi-step business process executed entirely by AI agents with minimal human intervention, spanning planning, execution, monitoring, and error recovery phases.

A meta-agent that coordinates, monitors, and manages a team of sub-agents, allocating tasks and synthesising results to fulfil complex multi-domain objectives.

An AI agent that formulates and pursues explicit goals, planning actions to achieve desired outcomes.

The transfer of a task or conversation from one specialised AI agent to another based on skill requirements, escalation rules, or domain boundaries.

The ability of an AI agent to formulate a sequence of actions to achieve a goal from its current state.

A system design where human oversight and approval are required at critical decision points in automated processes.

A multi-agent scenario where agents pursue conflicting objectives, leading to adversarial or game-theoretic interactions.

An AI agent that interprets datasets, generates visualisations, performs statistical analysis, and produces actionable insights through autonomous exploratory data investigation.

The ability to monitor, trace, and understand the internal states, decisions, and actions of AI agents in production.
