대부분의 멀티에이전트 시스템이 생산에 실패하는 이유 (그리고 이를 해결하는 방법)

Most multi-agent demos look impressive on stage. Then they hit production and fall apart.

Here’s the pattern: agents that “worked” in a Jupyter notebook start conflicting, retrying infinitely, or silently failing when other agents are involved.

The root cause isn’t the LLM. It’s the orchestration layer.

What Actually Breaks

1. No structured handoffs — Agents pass messages as raw strings. Context gets lost. Intent gets misread.
2. No retry strategy — When one agent fails, the whole chain stops or enters an infinite loop.
3. No observability — You can’t see which agent failed, why, and what state it was in.

What We Built Instead

AgentForge is an open-source orchestration platform with three non-negotiables:

• ✅ Structured JSON inter-agent protocol — No ambiguous handoffs
• ✅ Automatic retry with exponential backoff + circuit breaker — Graceful degradation
• ✅ Real-time execution trace — Every agent call, parameter, and response is logged

A Real Example

We run a daily investment analysis pipeline with 5 specialized agents:

• Market data agent (fetches real-time quotes)
• Risk assessment agent (calculates exposure)
• Strategy agent (generates trade signals)
• Report agent (formats daily brief)
• Notification agent (pushes to channels)

Each agent has a typed input/output contract. If the market data agent times out, the circuit breaker kicks in and the pipeline uses cached data with a warning flag — instead of crashing.
