## Core Agent Architecture Patterns
### Pattern 1: ReAct (Reasoning + Acting)
**Structure:**
Loop until goal achieved:
Thought: [Agent's reasoning about current state]
Action: [Tool to use]
Action Input: [Parameters for the tool]
Observation: [Result from the tool]
Final Answer: [Completed result]
**Best For:** Simple, well-defined tasks with clear tool usage
**Limitations:**
- Can loop indefinitely without termination conditions
- Struggles with complex multi-step planning
- No explicit error recovery mechanism
**When to Use:** Quick prototypes, simple automations, single-purpose agents
---
### Pattern 2: Plan-then-Execute (P-t-E)
**Structure:**
Phase 1 - Planning:
- Analyze goal and constraints
- Create step-by-step plan with dependencies
- Validate plan feasibility against available tools
- Estimate resource requirements
Phase 2 - Execution:
For each step in plan:
- Execute step with error handling
- Validate output against expected result
- If failure: apply recovery strategy or re-plan
- Track progress and resource consumption
**Best For:**
- Complex multi-step tasks
- Security-critical applications
- Cost-sensitive deployments
- Tasks requiring predictable behavior
**Advantages:**
- Separates strategic thinking from tactical execution
- Allows re-planning without losing state
- Better control flow integrity
- Mitigates prompt injection attacks (planning phase can be sandboxed)
**Implementation Notes:**
- Limit plans to 8-10 steps maximum (larger plans lose coherence)
- Include explicit success criteria for each step
- Make dependencies between steps explicit
---
### Pattern 3: Hierarchical Multi-Agent
**Structure:**
Coordinator Agent
├── Specialist Agent 1 (Domain Expert)
├── Specialist Agent 2 (Tool Expert)
├── Specialist Agent 3 (Validator)
└── Specialist Agent N
Communication Flow:
- Coordinator receives user request
- Decomposes into sub-tasks for specialists
- Distributes tasks (parallel or sequential)
- Specialists execute and return results
- Coordinator aggregates and validates
- Returns unified solution
**Best For:**
- Complex domains requiring multiple expertise areas
- Parallel task execution
- Large-scale agent systems (5+ agents)
**Key Decisions:**
- Depth of hierarchy (recommend max 3 levels)
- Specialist granularity (task-based vs domain-based)
- Communication protocol (structured JSON vs natural language)
---
### Pattern 4: Agentic Loops with Reflection
**Structure:**
Loop (max_iterations):
- Execute task using primary approach
- Evaluate output against success criteria
- If quality sufficient: return result
- Reflect on gaps and failures
- Generate improved approach
- Re-execute with adjustments
**Best For:**
- Content generation requiring high quality
- Code generation with testing
- Analysis tasks with quality thresholds
**Requirements:**
- Clear, measurable success criteria
- Evaluation mechanism (tests, validators, LLM-as-judge)
- Maximum iteration limit to prevent infinite loops
---
### Pattern 5: Tool-Orchestrating Agent
**Structure:**
Agent receives request
↓
Analyze required capabilities
↓
Select appropriate tools from registry
↓
Generate tool parameters (validated)
↓
Execute tool with timeout and error handling
↓
Process tool output
↓
Synthesize results or chain to next tool
**Tool Definition Best Practices:**
```json
{
"name": "search_database",
"description": "Search the customer database by name, email, or ID. Use when user asks about customer information.",
"parameters": {
"query": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Search term (name, email, or customer ID)",
"required": true
},
"limit": {
"type": "integer",
"description": "Maximum results to return",
"default": 10,
"maximum": 100
}
},
"returns": "Array of customer objects with id, name, email, status",
"errors": ["RATE_LIMITED", "INVALID_QUERY", "DATABASE_UNAVAILABLE"]
}
Essential Terminology
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Agent | Autonomous system that perceives environment, reasons about goals, and executes actions |
| Agentic Workflow | Multi-step sequence with decision points, loops, and error handling |
| Planning Phase | Strategic reasoning decomposing goals into sub-tasks with dependencies |
| Execution Phase | Tactical implementation performing actions and processing results |
| Tool/Action | External function the agent can invoke (APIs, databases, code execution) |
| Observation | Feedback from environment after action execution |
| State Management | Tracking agent context, memory, and progress across execution |
| Reflection | Post-execution evaluation to identify failures and adjust strategy |
| Multi-Agent System | Multiple specialized agents collaborating on complex problems |
| Tool Calling | LLM selecting tools and generating validated parameters |
| ReAct Pattern | Alternating reasoning and action steps in a loop |
| Plan-then-Execute | Two-phase pattern separating planning from execution |
| Hallucination | Agent generating false information; mitigated through verification |
| Token Budget | Resource limit for LLM calls across entire agent execution |
| Circuit Breaker | Pattern to stop calling failing services after threshold |
Workflow 1: Simple Task with Tool Calls
Name: Single-Agent Tool-Based Task
Steps:
- User provides goal/query to agent
- Agent analyzes goal and identifies required tools
- Agent calls tools with generated parameters
- Agent observes tool results (success/failure)
- Agent synthesizes results into final answer
- Return response to user
Expected Output: Direct answer combining tool outputs with reasoning
Use Cases: Customer service, document analysis, data lookup, basic research
Error Handling:
- Tool timeout: Retry with extended timeout or simplify request
- Invalid response: Validate and request clarification
- Tool unavailable: Use fallback tool or inform user
Workflow 2: Complex Multi-Step Task with Planning
Name: Plan-then-Execute Pattern Implementation
Steps:
- User provides complex goal requiring multiple steps
- Agent creates detailed plan with dependencies:
Step 1: [Action] → Expected: [Output] → Depends on: [None]
Step 2: [Action] → Expected: [Output] → Depends on: [Step 1]
...
- Agent validates plan feasibility against available tools
- Agent executes plan with progress tracking:
- For each step:
- Call required tools
- Verify results against expected output
- Handle failures with retries (max 3)
- If step fails: attempt alternatives or re-plan
- Aggregate results from all steps
- Return final result with execution trace
Best Practices:
- Limit to 8-10 steps maximum
- Include success criteria for each step
- Log all decisions for debugging
- Implement checkpointing for long-running tasks
Workflow 3: Multi-Agent Collaboration
Name: Hierarchical Multi-Agent Task Execution
Steps:
- Coordinator receives user request
- Coordinator decomposes into sub-tasks:
{
"task_1": {"agent": "researcher", "input": "...", "priority": 1},
"task_2": {"agent": "analyst", "input": "...", "depends_on": ["task_1"]},
"task_3": {"agent": "writer", "input": "...", "depends_on": ["task_2"]}
}
- Coordinator distributes tasks (parallel where no dependencies)
- Specialists execute and return structured results
- Coordinator verifies results and detects conflicts
- Coordinator may request re-execution if needed
- Synthesize all results into unified solution
- Return comprehensive answer
Communication Protocol:
{
"message_type": "task_assignment",
"from": "coordinator",
"to": "researcher",
"task_id": "task_1",
"payload": {...},
"timeout_ms": 30000,
"priority": "high"
}
Workflow 4: Error Recovery & Fallback
Name: Resilient Task Execution
Error Classification:
| Error Type | Recovery Strategy |
|---|---|
| Timeout | Retry with longer timeout; simplify request |
| Invalid Input | Validate and sanitize parameters; retry |
| Rate Limited | Exponential backoff (1s, 2s, 4s, 8s...) |
| Service Unavailable | Use alternative tool; queue for retry |
| Permission Denied | Escalate to user; skip step |
| Malformed Response | Parse partial data; request correction |
Implementation:
MAX_RETRIES = 3
BACKOFF_BASE = 1.0
For each tool call:
retries = 0
While retries < MAX_RETRIES:
try:
result = call_tool(params, timeout)
validate(result)
return result
except TimeoutError:
retries += 1
sleep(BACKOFF_BASE * 2^retries)
except RateLimitError:
retries += 1
sleep(BACKOFF_BASE * 2^retries)
except ValidationError:
sanitize_and_retry()
# All retries exhausted
try_fallback_tool() OR escalate_to_user()
Workflow 5: Iterative Refinement with Reflection
Name: Self-Improving Agent Loop
Steps:
- Execute task using primary approach
- Evaluate output against success criteria:
Criteria:
- Completeness: Does it address all requirements?
- Accuracy: Are facts and calculations correct?
- Quality: Does it meet quality thresholds?
- Format: Does it match expected structure?
- If quality insufficient, reflect on gaps:
Reflection:
- What's missing? [Gap analysis]
- What's wrong? [Error identification]
- Why did it fail? [Root cause]
- How to improve? [Strategy adjustment]
- Generate improved approach
- Re-execute with adjustments
- Compare iterations; select best result
- Return final refined output
Termination Conditions:
- Quality threshold met
- Maximum iterations reached
- No improvement in last N iterations
- Resource budget exhausted
Best Practices: DO's ✅
Architecture & Design
- ✅ Use hierarchical architecture for complex domains (coordinator + specialists)
- ✅ Separate planning from execution - allows re-planning without state loss
- ✅ Implement explicit state management - don't rely on prompt memory alone
- ✅ Design focused tools - single responsibility, well-documented
- ✅ Domain-specific prompts - generic agents fail on complex tasks
- ✅ Clear role boundaries - avoid overlapping agent responsibilities
Tool Integration
- ✅ Detailed tool descriptions with parameters, examples, error cases
- ✅ Validate tool outputs before agent uses them
- ✅ Schema validation for tool input parameters
- ✅ Timeouts and rate limiting for external calls
- ✅ Log all tool calls with results for debugging
- ✅ Plan for missing tools - graceful degradation essential
Error Handling & Resilience
- ✅ Exponential backoff for retries (1s, 2s, 4s, 8s...)
- ✅ Error classification with specific recovery strategies
- ✅ Maximum retry counts (typically 3-5)
- ✅ Fallback options when primary approaches fail
- ✅ Return partial results on failure
- ✅ Circuit breakers for consistently failing services
Multi-Agent Coordination
- ✅ Explicit message passing between agents
- ✅ Structured communication (JSON schemas, not natural language)
- ✅ Coordinator agent role to orchestrate specialists
- ✅ Acknowledgment mechanisms for message receipt
- ✅ Parallel execution where dependencies allow
Best Practices: DON'Ts ❌
Architecture Anti-Patterns
- ❌ Monolithic agents handling everything
- ❌ Relying on prompting for critical logic (use code)
- ❌ Prompt memory only - implement proper state management
- ❌ Mixing planning and execution phases
- ❌ Over-specified prompts creating brittleness
- ❌ Ignoring hallucinations - implement verification
Tool Integration Mistakes
- ❌ Unclear tool descriptions - agents can't use poorly documented tools
- ❌ Unvalidated outputs - garbage in = garbage out
- ❌ Large multi-function tools - creates confusion
- ❌ No timeouts on external calls (agents hang)
- ❌ Ignoring integration errors
Error Handling Failures
- ❌ Infinite retries - wastes resources
- ❌ Treating all errors identically
- ❌ Not logging failures
- ❌ Complete failure on single tool issue
- ❌ No resource limits
Planning Mistakes
- ❌ 50+ step plans - exceeds reasoning capability
- ❌ Infinite loops without termination
- ❌ Implicit dependencies
- ❌ Agent decides scope - set boundaries explicitly

Production Considerations
Token Budget Management
MAX_TOKENS_TOTAL = 100000
tokens_used = 0
Before each LLM call:
estimated_tokens = estimate_tokens(prompt + expected_response)
if tokens_used + estimated_tokens > MAX_TOKENS_TOTAL:
trigger_budget_exceeded_strategy()
else:
tokens_used += actual_tokens_used
Cost Tracking
- Track per-call costs (input tokens, output tokens)
- Set alerts at 50%, 75%, 90% of budget
- Implement per-user or per-task quotas
- Log all costs for post-analysis
Observability Requirements
- Traces: Complete execution paths with timing
- Logs: All decisions, tool calls, errors
- Metrics: Success rates, latency, cost per task
- Alerts: Failure rate spikes, cost anomalies
Security Considerations
- Validate all tool inputs to prevent injection
- Sandbox code execution environments
- Rate limit per user/session
- Audit log all agent actions
- Implement approval gates for high-risk actions
Troubleshooting Common Issues
| Issue | Diagnosis | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Agent loops indefinitely | No termination condition | Add max_iterations, detect repetition |
| Hallucinated tool calls | Tool description unclear | Improve descriptions, add examples |
