Agentic Workflow

"A system architecture where AI models act as autonomous agents with specific roles, communication protocols, and tool-use capabilities."

Practical Usage

Agentic workflows move beyond simple chat interfaces. By assigning a model a role (e.g., Researcher, Editor, Programmer) and giving it access to external tools (APIs, databases, web search), the system can autonomously execute complex loops of research, code generation, and testing until a final goal is achieved.

How it Works

Implement an agent loop that runs recursively. Define tools as JSON schemas that the model can request to execute, and use a router node to parse the model's tool requests, run the tools, and return results.

Author Note

"Agentic workflows are the future of software development. Our team uses specialized subagents to handle routine testing and code inspection, letting human developers focus on architecture."
