Multi-Agent OrchestrationWhen a task is too big or varied for one agent, an orchestrator decomposes it and delegates subtasks to focused sub-agents, each with its own clean context and tools, then synthesizes the results. The main benefit is context isolation (each sub-agent stays focused and within its window) plus parallelism and specialization. The costs are coordination overhead, latency, and error propagation, so you use multiple agents only when the task genuinely needs it. Applied-AI interviews probe it because multi-agent designs are common and easy to over-apply.
