The summary and note below are generated by the signal pipeline — they are Beyond Desk’s reading, not quotations from the source.

Anthropic shares lessons from working with dozens of teams building LLM agents, finding the most successful implementations use simple, composable patterns rather than complex frameworks, and draws an architectural distinction between workflows and agents.

A primary-source taxonomy separating workflows from agents with composable patterns; a reference many teams still cite when deciding where orchestration logic belongs.
