Agent Workflow Designer FAQs

Question 1

Can I define custom handoff contracts between agents?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the skill is designed to help you define explicit handoff contract fields for every edge in your workflow to ensure data integrity between agents.

Question 2

What workflow patterns does this skill support?

Accepted Answer

It supports five core patterns: Sequential (step-by-step), Parallel (fan-out/in), Router (intent-based dispatch), Orchestrator (central planner), and Evaluator (generator + quality gate).

Question 3

When should I use a multi-agent workflow instead of a single prompt?

Accepted Answer

Use workflows when a single prompt cannot handle task complexity, when you need specialist agents with clear boundaries, or when you require deterministic validation loops.

Question 4

How do I generate a new workflow skeleton?

Accepted Answer

You can use the provided workflow_scaffolder.py script via the command line to generate skeletons for specific patterns, such as 'sequential' or 'orchestrator'.

Question 5

How does this skill manage AI costs?
