Why Most Multi-Agent Systems Fail in Production (And How to Fix It)
Short summary
Multi-agent systems frequently fail in production due to poor orchestration: agents lose context during handoffs, lack retry mechanisms, and have no visibility into failures. AgentForge addresses these gaps with structured JSON inter-agent protocols, automatic retry with circuit breakers, and comprehensive execution traces. The open-source platform includes a working example: a 5-agent investment analysis pipeline that gracefully degrades when agents timeout.
