As we'll explore in this video, when we build multi-agent system architectures, we have the ability to organize those agents into orchestrator and worker roles. The planning design pattern encompasses this architectural approach to leverage that architecture in support of carrying out planned tasks. Okay, so let's take a step back and imagine an agent faced with a really large and complex task, the kind of task that might involve dozens of steps or perhaps span a long period of time. The challenge is that while that agent's LLM can carry out complex reasoning using chain of thought, and dynamic actions with React and the help of the controller, having that single agent process the entire task from start to finish can be inefficient, or simply may not be possible at all.
