The author discusses the common pattern of giving AI agents job titles: one researches, one writes code, one reviews, and a coordinator decides what happens next. The real difficulty is not naming roles but the handoffs between them, so each agent should have one job with defined input and output, and the output format should be written down so the next agent can verify it, such as a table of claims with a source column rather than a long essay.
