Multi-Agent System

A multi-agent system is an AI architecture where multiple specialized agents collaborate, communicate, and coordinate to solve complex tasks that a single agent cannot.

What Is Multi-Agent System?

Multi-agent systems divide complex work among specialized agents. Instead of one monolithic AI handling everything, you have: a planning agent that breaks down tasks, specialist agents that execute (researcher, writer, coder, reviewer), and an orchestrator that coordinates the workflow.

Frameworks: CrewAI (role-based agents, easy to start), LangGraph (graph-based workflows, production-grade), AutoGen (Microsoft, conversation-based), and custom orchestration (for complex enterprise needs).

Key design decisions: agent communication patterns (hierarchical vs peer-to-peer), shared memory vs isolated contexts, error handling and recovery, and human approval checkpoints.

How Groovy Web Uses This

We run a 16-agent system (Growth OS) in production daily — Rex coordinates, Marcus handles SEO, Clara writes content, Cass manages sales. This is not theory — it is our daily operating system.
