Definition
A specialized agentic workflow designed to execute complex information-gathering tasks by iteratively decomposing queries into sub-tasks, performing multi-source retrieval, and synthesizing findings. It trades off real-time responsiveness for comprehensive depth, as the iterative search loops and multi-pass reasoning increase latency and token costs compared to standard RAG.
Not a human collaborator, but an autonomous loop-based architecture for multi-step data synthesis.
