The best agent is not the one that knows everything. It is the one that knows who to ask. Cramming every scenario into a single super agent makes it worse at all of them. Watch the walkthrough, then skim the recap below.

What you’ll see

A composed ecosystem uses worker agents so a main agent can hand deep questions to focused specialists while the user stays in one conversation. This walkthrough builds exactly that.

  • Worker agents that own a narrow domain and do it well
  • The delegation pattern that routes a request to the right specialist
  • Reusing expertise across teams instead of rebuilding it in every agent
  • Why one super agent is the wrong shape for broad scenarios

The takeaway: split by expertise, connect by delegation. A small team of focused agents beats one that tries to do everything.
