Multi-agent communication prevents circular loops by enforcing chain tracking, self-invocation blocks, and isolation rules. These safety guardrails stop overly deep call sequences and ensure reliable inter-agent orchestration without destabilizing workflows.

Inter-agent communication uses a consistent, machine-readable invocation syntax for board meetings. This format defines how one role requests another role's input, enabling structured cross-functional analysis and executive-style decision making.

Broadcast patterns for cross-functional agent queries are formatted to support independent analysis and critique phases. A CEO agent can broadcast a crisis question to all roles, then synthesize their separate responses into a single recommendation.

Multi-agent orchestration requires specific conflict resolution protocols to handle conflicting outputs. The protocol enforces assumption handling and response formatting to ensure reliable coordination during cross-functional agent queries and board meetings.

You should use an agent protocol for multi-agent orchestration when coordinating C-suite agents requires invocation syntax and chain tracking. It applies to board meetings, cross-functional analysis, and agent-to-agent queries that need isolation rules.
