Why should you care?

Split roles only when one agent’s prompt and tools become too crowded.

See it live — copy this example

Use .NET 8+. Run Semantic Kernel samples in a console or Web API. Keep API keys in user secrets or environment variables — never in source.

// Avoiding Agent Swarms Early
// coordinator -> specialist agents
record AgentMessage(string From, string To, string Body);

What happened?

• Messages between agents should be structured.
• Start with 2 roles, not 12.

Practice next

1. Recreate the sketch in a .NET 8 console or Web API.
2. Connect a real or mock chat client.
3. Add one validation or auth check.
4. Tighten the prompt/tool description.
5. Log duration of the model call.

Remember

You can explain Avoiding Agent Swarms Early simply. You have a C# sketch to extend. You know one safety or ops risk.
