Composite Agent Pattern

A Composite Agent Pattern is an agent design pattern that combines two or more complementary cognitive dimensions from a cognitive architecture framework, creating synergistic agent architectures with enhanced capabilities for agent entitys beyond single-dimension designs.

• AKA: Paired Cognitive Pattern, Hybrid Agent Architecture, Synergistic Agent Design, Multi-Dimensional Agent Pattern.
• Context:
  • It can be implemented in AI agents to enhance their autonomous behavior and decision making capabilities.
  • It can be adopted by human agents seeking to enhance their cognitive capability through structured approaches.
  • It can leverage complementary agent capabilitys to address complex agent tasks in multi-agent systems.
  • It can create agent entitys that exhibit emergent behavior from dimensional synergy.
  • It can provide architectural blueprints for implementing specialized cognitive agents with balanced agent behavior patterns.
  • It can enable agent learning approaches where strengths of one dimension support weaknesses of another.
  • It can enhance agent communication by combining multiple perspective-taking capabilities.
  • It can improve agent performance in complex agent environments requiring adaptive responses.
  • It can support agent strategy development through multi-dimensional reasoning.
  • It can facilitate agent adaptation to changing environmental conditions.
• Example(s):
  • Explorer-Scientist Pattern combining discovery with systematic observation in research agents.
  • Revolutionary-Builder Pattern transforming systems while constructing replacements in change management agents.
  • Connector-Navigator Pattern bridging domains while guiding through complexity in knowledge management agents.
  • Creator-Practitioner Pattern generating aesthetic solutions with practical implementation in design agents.
  • Chronicler-Theorist Pattern documenting history while predicting futures in predictive agents.
• Counter-Example(s):
  • Single-Dimension Agent operating with only one cognitive mode.
  • Random Agent Combination lacking synergistic pairing of capabilities.
  • Static Agent Architecture not leveraging dimensional interaction.
  • Unbalanced Agent Design where one dimension completely dominates.
  • Reactive Agent without deliberative capabilities.
