How state graphs, memory, and delegation shape agent workflow design
When engineers build autonomous systems that carry out multi-step tasks, they quickly discover that raw language model calls are not enough. A single prompt can answer a question, but a system that browses a website, cross-references a database, and books a resource must keep track of where it is, what it has done, and what to do next. This is where agent workflow design becomes the deciding factor between a prototype that works once and a production system that reliably com
