Orchestrating Agents: Routines and Handoffs

# Orchestrating Agents: Routines and Handoffs When working with language models, quite often all you need for solid performance is a good prompt and the right tools. However, when dealing with many unique flows, things may get hairy. This cookbook will walk through one way to tackle this. We'll introduce the notion of **routines** and **handoffs**, then walk through the implementation and show how they can be used to orchestrate multiple agents in a simple, powerful, and controllable way. Finally, we provide a sample repo, [Swarm](https://github.com/openai/swarm), that implements these ideas along with examples.
