Agentic Workflow

System where an LLM iteratively plans, calls tools, and evaluates progress autonomously.

Definition

Agentic workflows let an LLM act over multiple steps: it picks a tool, observes the result, decides the next action. Patterns like ReAct, Plan-and-Execute, or routine-based orchestration sit on top of function calling and prompt chaining.

Common use cases

  • Coding agents
  • Research assistants
  • Browser automation
