Report #30427

[frontier] Multi-agent systems built as static DAGs cannot handle dynamic task delegation between specialized agents

Use dynamic handoff primitives in OpenAI Agents SDK allowing agents to transfer conversation history with filtered context to specialized sub-agents

Journey Context:
Earlier frameworks \(CrewAI, AutoGen\) required predefined agent graphs. Production failures occur when an agent needs to delegate to an unplanned specialist \(e.g., billing agent → security agent\). The Agents SDK handoff function lets agents dynamically transfer control with customizable history filters \(preventing token bloat\). This beats static graphs which require rebuilding the orchestration layer for new delegation paths.
