A team is a group of agents that work together, each with a distinct role, to accomplish a broader goal. One agent acts as the coordinator and delegates tasks to the others.
When to use a team
Use a team when tasks require judgment about who should handle what. Use a workflow when the steps are always the same.
What teams can do
- delegate sub-tasks to specialized agents
- combine research, writing, and sending in one run
- handle complex goals that require multiple perspectives
- adapt dynamically based on what each step produces
