Multi-Agent Patterns — Advanced

See the core multi-agent-patterns skill for basics: orchestration vs choreography, intent classification routing, in-memory state, handoffs, fan-out/fan-in, Claude SDK loop, and observability.

When to Activate

• Building a capability registry for dynamic agent dispatch
• Implementing durable cross-agent state (Redis, DynamoDB event log)
• Decomposing complex goals into parallel and sequential sub-tasks
• Writing deterministic tests for multi-agent workflows
• Selecting the right pattern from the quick-selection guide
• Managing failure modes across agent boundaries
• Controlling token cost in large multi-agent systems
• Isolating parallel file-editing agents with git worktrees
