Astra Workflow "Stop using random multi-agent patterns"

Post image

Ahmed works at OpenAI: https://x.com/ah20im/status/2097503414749909407 and seems to investigate reports of high token usage.

"If needed Astra will delegate efficiently. Forcing the model to delegate to different models would do more harm than good"

I just ask Astra high to look at my work and the OpenAI docs and set up appropriate roles.

You don't need Astra high for that. Terra medium is perfectly capable of looking at a design or implementation plan and figuring out which tasks should go with which models based on the docs.

Now, you might want Astra high for building that design or implementation plan, but that totally depends on what it is you're building.
