📰 Dev.to · WonderLab

Learn multi-agent architecture design patterns to build more complex systems with supervisor and pipeline approaches

intermediate Published 1 Jun 2026
Action Steps
  1. Identify the need for multi-agent systems in your project using the single-agent system limitations
  2. Design a supervisor-based architecture to manage multiple agents and their interactions
  3. Implement a pipeline-based architecture to streamline agent workflows and data processing
  4. Compare the trade-offs between supervisor and pipeline approaches for your specific use case
  5. Apply the chosen architecture pattern to your multi-agent system and test its performance
