Agent loops cost 10x to 50x what a chatbot interaction costs; multi-agent systems add another order of magnitude. The cost compounding is structural, not a bug. The cost reduction is structural too. Decomposing where the tokens go and how to bring agent economics back from runaway to acceptable.

Most multi-agent demos collapse in production. The patterns that survive contact with real workloads are smaller in number and more disciplined than the demos suggest. Planner-worker, supervisor-team, critic-reviser, and hierarchical compositions, with the cost and failure tradeoffs that decide which one to pick when.

A deep dive into Microsoft Entra Agent ID, the control plane for AI agent identity in 2026. Covers identity blueprints, attended and unattended authentication, tool-level RBAC, conditional access, OBO flows across multi-agent systems, and the audit logging that satisfies DORA, NIS2, and AI Act obligations.

The capability spectrum from stateless LLM to multi-agent orchestration is one of the most conflated concepts in the 2026 AI market. The distinctions matter. They change architecture, they change cost by an order of magnitude, and under the EU AI Act they change compliance posture.

A year-end, hype-free review of where agentic AI actually shipped in 2025, which patterns graduated from pilot to production, and which still need work before they are safe to trust with consequential decisions.
