Every AI agent framework has a "build a research agent in 10 lines" tutorial. Cool. Now try running 50 agents concurrently, handling failures, managing shared state, and keeping costs under control. That's where demos die and engineering begins. These are 7 orchestration patterns that work across frameworks — LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, OpenAI Agents SDK, or your own custom setup. The patterns are framework-agnostic because good architecture outlasts any library. Pattern 1: The Su
