Supervisor Agent
A supervisor agent is an AI agent that coordinates the work of multiple specialized subagents, breaking complex tasks into components, delegating each to the appropriate agent, and synthesizing their outputs into a coherent result.
理解する Supervisor Agent
As AI systems tackle increasingly complex tasks, single-agent architectures hit limits. A single agent managing all aspects of a complex workflow — planning, tool execution, quality review, and synthesis — becomes difficult to reason about and prone to errors. Multi-agent architectures address this by specializing. In a supervisor-worker architecture, the supervisor agent receives a high-level task and determines how to decompose it. It identifies which specialized subagents should handle which components, dispatches work to them, monitors their progress, handles failures, and combines outputs. The supervisor focuses on coordination; workers focus on execution. This mirrors how human organizations work. A project manager doesn't write code, design interfaces, and test software simultaneously. They coordinate specialists who each bring deep expertise to their domain. Supervisor agents apply the same principle to AI. LangGraph, the framework underlying GAIA's agent system, supports supervisor-worker patterns natively. Each node in the graph can represent a specialized agent, and the graph structure encodes the coordination logic.
GAIAの活用方法 Supervisor Agent
GAIA's LangGraph-based architecture uses a supervisor-worker pattern. A coordinator agent receives your request and determines which specialized subagents to invoke — email agent, calendar agent, task agent, or integration-specific agents. Each subagent handles its domain with depth, and the supervisor synthesizes results into a coherent response.

Agent Loop
An agent loop is the iterative execution cycle of an AI agent in which it reasons about the current state, selects and executes an action (often a tool call), observes the result, and repeats until the task is complete or a stopping condition is reached.
