Agentic Workflow Patterns

Agentic AI Systems 🐔

**Agentic systems explained with chickens — because AI orchestration doesn't have to be scary**

*Main Agent spawns Subagents like a hen with her chicks 🐔🪺🐦*

🦄 [Foundations](foundations/)

*The building block for everything*

🦄 Augmented LLM	LLM + Retrieval + Tools + Memory

---

⚙️ [Workflows](workflows/)

*Predefined orchestration — code controls the flow*

#	Workflow	Use When
0	🏎️ Baseline	Simple, 1-step task
1	⛓️ Prompt Chaining	Sequential steps
2	🚦 Routing	Classify & dispatch
3	🛤️ Parallelization	Independent tasks
