What defines a workflow in the context of Claude?	A predefined series of calls to Claude.
When should you use a workflow?	When you have a good idea of the exact series of steps needed to complete a task.
How do agents operate when completing a task?	They are provided with basic tools and Claude combines them to solve the problem.
When are agents the appropriate choice over workflows?	When the exact tasks or steps that need to be completed are unknown.
Why do workflows generally lead to higher task accuracy?	They break down big tasks into smaller, specific steps, allowing Claude to focus.
What is a key advantage of workflows regarding testing?	They are easier to test and evaluate because the execution steps are known.
What flexibility do agents offer that workflows do not?	They can creatively handle a wide variety of challenges and generate their own inputs.
What is a primary downside to agents regarding task completion?	They generally have a lower successful task completion rate because too much is delegated to Claude.
Why are agents harder to test and evaluate than workflows?	The series of steps an agent will execute is often unpredictable.
What is the general engineering recommendation regarding workflows vs. agents?	Always focus on implementing workflows where possible, and only resort to agents when truly needed.
