Agent Orchestration Patterns: Chains, Graphs, and Tool Routing
Thesis
Moving from linear chain-of-thought to graph-based agent orchestration unlocks parallel tool execution and conditional branching without sacrificing observability.
What's inside
- Comparison of chain vs. graph orchestration patterns
- Built-in tool-calling protocol with MCP support
- Observability via LangSmith tracing across multi-step flows
