Workflow orchestrations

Agent Framework provides several built-in multi-agent orchestration patterns:

Pattern	Description
Sequential	Agents execute one after another in a defined order
Concurrent	Agents execute in parallel
Handoff	Agents transfer control to each other based on context
Group Chat	Agents collaborate in a shared conversation
Magentic	A manager agent dynamically coordinates specialized agents

Tip

Orchestrations support human-in-the-loop interactions through tool approval and request info. Agents can use approval-required tools that pause the workflow for human review before execution. See Human-in-the-Loop and the sequential orchestration HITL tutorial for details.
