FlowBank: NeurIPS paper reuses complementary agent workflows for 73.40 avg vs 70.40 baseline
furongh · x · 2026-10-05
A thread introducing FlowBank, a NeurIPS paper on optimizing the workflow layer of LLM multi-agent systems.
- Key insight: most optimizers keep a single winning workflow, but a below-average workflow often solves exactly the queries the winner misses
- FlowBank precomputes complementary workflows offline, curates a compact bank, and adaptively selects one per query to balance performance and cost
- Motivated by OpenAI's 10,000 agents collaborating on Navier–Stokes: which ways of agent collaboration are worth reusing?
