Agent Topology

Domain: Agent Architectures

🎯 Motivation

The communication structure between agents: star (hub-spoke), ring, mesh, tree, or custom.

📋 Concrete Example

Star: all agents talk to orchestrator only. Ring: A->B->C->A. Mesh: every agent talks to every other. Tree: hierarchical parent-child. Topology affects speed, reliability, and complexity.

🔗 Analogy

Office communication structures - star (everyone goes through the boss), ring (pass messages around the team), mesh (everyone talks to everyone), tree (managers and subordinates). Topology shapes how agents communicate.
