Agent Design: Capabilities Should Be Tools, Domains Should Be Agents
andreisavu · x · 2026-08-21
Andreisavu shares a perspective on Agent architecture: Capabilities should be treated as tools, while Domains should be designed as Agents. He argues that defining agents based on verbs, such as a 'data analyst agent,' creates a routing nightmare, whereas reasoning about a domain specialist equipped with data analysis capabilities is much easier for system design.
