Not a tutorial. Just me thinking out loud about Agentic AI, which I started exploring last week.
Why is a single agent good to start with? When might multiple agents make sense? Where do graphs fit in?

Single vs Multi Agents - When One Brain Isn’t Enough
Thinking out loud about Agentic AI system design; what to keep simple, when to split, and why complexity isn’t always better. Still early in this space, but experimenting as I go.
