Workflow patterns and agent patterns

Learn the 5 workflow patterns you will reuse: prompt chaining (steps in order), routing (send the input to the right handler), parallelisation (run steps at the same time and combine), orchestrator–workers (one LLM splits the job and hands parts to workers) and evaluator–optimizer (one LLM writes, another checks and asks for fixes). Then the agent patterns: ReAct, plan-and-execute, reflection (critique and retry).
