What is Multi-Agent System?
An AI system where several model instances with separate roles and contexts work together, such as a lead agent and subagents.
Useful for broad, parallel tasks like research, but token-hungry: Anthropic reported its multi-agent research system used about 15× the tokens of a chat.
