agent-framework/workflow-samples/DeepResearch.yaml

#
# This workflow coordinates multiple agents in order to address complex user requests
# according to the "Magentic" orchestration pattern introduced by AutoGen.
# 
# For this workflow, several agents used, each with specific roles.
# 
# The following agents are responsible for overseeing and coordinating the workflow:
# - Research Agent: Analyze the current task and correlate relevant facts.
# - Planner Agent: Analyze the current task and devise an overall plan.
# - Manager Agent: Evaluates status and delegate tasks to other agents.
# - Summary Agent: Evaluates status and delegate tasks to other agents.
#
# The following agents have capabilities that are utilized to address the input task:
# - Knowledge Agent: Performs generic web searches.
# - Coder Agent: Able to write and execute code.
# - Weather Agent: Provides weather information.
