Agent vs Workflow - Which Should You Choose? (Part 1/2)
Most developers jump straight to AI agents — but that's almost never the right move. Before you build anything, ask one question: can a single LM call handle this?
Here's the 3-level decision ladder:
→ Single LM call → simple, one-shot tasks
→ Workflow → predictable multi-step processes
→ Agent → open-ended tasks where the path depends on what the LLM discovers
Each step up adds cost, latency, and complexity. Only climb when you have to.
