Delegation
Delegation is the act of an agent passing responsibility for a task — or a portion of a task — to another agent. The delegating agent specifies the objective, any constraints, and the expected output format, then waits for or polls the result. Effective delegation requires trust that the receiving agent will complete the work correctly; in practice, the delegating agent often validates returned results before incorporating them into its own output.
