Multi-Agent Collaboration and Handoff Design

Learn to design how multiple distinct AI agents work together — arguing against unnecessary multi-agent complexity by default, defining role boundaries and responsibility, designing the mechanics of agent-to-agent handoff and context transfer, making agent actions attributable and transparent, and handling disagreement and duplicate action. Multi-agent coordination is a genuinely young, fast-evolving practice area in 2026: this Course's specific patterns are taught as a current, dated professional snapshot that deserves at least an annual evidence review, never as permanent doctrine.

By the end of this Course, you can judge whether multiple agents are genuinely justified for a workflow, design testable role boundaries and responsibility allocation, design a complete handoff with attribution and transparency, and handle agent disagreement and duplicate-action risk using current, evidence-reviewed 2026 coordination patterns.

01Argue against multi-agent complexity by default, and recognize the specific, evidenced signals that genuinely justify more than one agent
02Define testable role boundaries and allocate outcome responsibility across agents, with a named accountable human owner
03Design the handoff trigger, the context that transfers, and the context that is deliberately withheld
04Design handoff acknowledgment and diagnose the recurring ways handoffs fail
05Design attribution so a reviewer can reconstruct which agent did what, including across long multi-hop chains
06Design transparency of live multi-agent state for reviewers, and a legible, non-opaque experience for end users
07Surface and resolve agent disagreement, and prevent duplicate consequential actions across agents
08Apply the supervisor, pipeline, and parallel-with-merge coordination patterns as current, dated 2026 conventions — and choose among them based on a workflow's actual dependency structure
