📚 Module 6 of 10

Building Your Agent Team

Why one agent isn't enough. Set up specialized sub-agents for different tasks.

👥 Why Multiple Agents?

One agent trying to do everything = jack of all trades, master of none. Specialized agents = experts in their domains, better results.

💡

Think of It This Way

You wouldn't ask your accountant to fix your plumbing. Why ask your general-purpose agent to do specialized research? Create experts for expert tasks.
