This post argues against the default adoption of multi-agent systems for organizational convenience, proposing that a single agent per brand, coupled with strong context engineering, is often a more effective and less complex approach.

The emphasis is on maximizing the value of a single agent's context rather than managing inter-agent communication and state.
