TL;DR: Predefined orchestration paths where code controls the flow. From simple baseline to complex multi-step processes.
"Workflows are systems where LLMs and tools are orchestrated through predefined code paths." — Anthropic, Building Effective Agents
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ WORKFLOWS │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ │
│ 🏎️ Baseline → Single LLM call, no orchestration │
│ ⛓️ Prompt Chaining → Sequential steps, output → input │
│ 🚦 Routing → Classify then dispatch │
│ 🛤️ Parallelization → Concurrent independent tasks │
│ 🦑 Orchestrator → Delegate to specialized workers │
│ 🩻 Evaluator → Iterative improvement via feedback │
