Battle-Tested Patterns
Every pattern in this book has code that shipped. Every failure has a git commit. Every success has metrics from a real 100-hour session.
Three Tiers of Orchestration
From in-process subagents to coordinated teams to independent federation nodes — learn which tier fits which problem.
The Human Factor
Convenience is for the AI. Visibility is for the human. The best multi-agent systems serve both — this book shows you how.
About This Book
This is not a theoretical treatise on multi-agent systems. It is a field guide written from a 100+ hour session where we used three distinct tiers of agent orchestration to ship a production-grade software system.
Convenience is for the AI. Visibility is for the human. The best system serves both.
Built on maw-js, a multi-agent workflow framework written in Bun + TypeScript. Every file path and commit hash in this book is real and reproducible.
