Agent Orchestration

Agent orchestration is the layer of software that decides which AI agent runs, in what order, with which tools and context, and how the results are composed into a final outcome. It is what turns a collection of individual agents into a coordinated system that can complete complex work.

As GaaS products take on multi-step jobs, orchestration becomes the hard engineering problem: planning, routing tasks to the right specialized agent, passing context between them, handling failures, and keeping a human in the loop where needed. Good orchestration is often the difference between an agent demo and an agent that survives production.
