How AI agents call tools, how they remember what they have learnt, and how the Model Context Protocol gives them a standard way to reach data and services.
The common ways to split work across several AI agents, what each pattern costs, and how the A2A protocol lets agents from different vendors find and delegate to each other.
Research labelling more than 1,600 multi-agent runs finds failures cluster around unclear tasks, poor coordination and weak checking. Here is what goes wrong and where to put controls.
