Building Effective Teams

A multi-agent team is more than the sum of its parts. Role synergy—how well agents work together—determines team effectiveness. Some roles complement each other perfectly, while others may create inefficiencies.

Team Composition Principles

•

Complete Workflow Coverage: Ensure all phases (research → plan → execute → review) are covered

•

Complementary Strengths: Choose roles that amplify each other's capabilities

•

Avoid Redundancy: Don't duplicate roles unless scaling requires it

Common Team Patterns

🏆 The Complete Team

Researcher + Planner + Executor + Critic

Best for: Complex, high-stakes projects requiring full workflow coverage

⚡ The Rapid Deployment Team

Planner + Executor + Coordinator

Best for: Fast implementation with known requirements

🔍 The Research Team

Researcher + Domain Specialist + Planner

Best for: Exploration and analysis-heavy tasks

💡 Key Insight

Start with the core four (Researcher, Planner, Executor, Critic), then add specialized roles as needed. This foundation ensures complete workflow coverage, while additional roles provide domain expertise or coordination for complex projects.
