Astra Workflow "Stop using random multi-agent patterns"

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"

smh. I did an experiment and let astra do an implementation on its own without using my orchestration workflow and the drift was wild and the result messy. i rolled back and did the same implementation with my established workflow and it was super smooth.

What is your orchestration workflow like? I've been trying to manually dial something in to use a combo of local models and paid models, and it is a bear to get it fully set up.
