Configuration

  • Tasks are decomposed and delegated automatically

Tips & gotchas

  • Best for parallel work. Orchestration is most useful for tasks that are naturally parallel — researching multiple topics, analyzing multiple files, or checking multiple sources.
  • Automatic splitting. The assistant decides how to split the work. Results are merged back into a coherent response.
  • Not always needed. Not every task benefits from orchestration — simple sequential tasks are better handled directly.
