# AgentEngineering

> The definitive information platform for engineers and researchers building AI agent systems.

AgentEngineering is an independent, open-access reference covering the discipline of agent engineering — the design, construction, deployment, and maintenance of autonomous AI systems. Content is written for maximum precision and technical accuracy.

## Purpose

This site exists to be the authoritative reference for agent engineering. All content is freely accessible and structured for consumption by humans, AI assistants, search engines, and machines alike.

## Content Structure

- /topics/articles — Long-form guides and in-depth tutorials on agent engineering topics
- /topics/news — The latest developments, research, and announcements in the agent engineering space
- /topics/case-studies — Real-world deployments and lessons learned from production agent systems
- /topics/tools — Curated directory of frameworks, libraries, and tooling for agent engineers
- /glossary — Precise A–Z definitions of terms and concepts in agent engineering

## Core Topics Covered

- Agent architectures and design patterns (ReAct, Plan-and-Execute, MRKL, etc.)
- Tool use and function calling in LLM-based agents
- Multi-agent orchestration patterns (sequential, parallel, hierarchical, event-driven)
- Memory systems for agents (in-context, external, episodic, semantic)
- Agent evaluation and benchmarking
- Safety, reliability, and observability for agentic systems
- Frameworks and tooling (LangGraph, AutoGen, Pydantic AI, OpenAI Swarm, Smolagents)
