UnverifiedIn multi-step agent scenarios, the platform's orchestration capabilities often determine the final outcome more than the quality of a single model inference.79% similarUnverifiedTraditional agent development tends to feed all tool definitions and prompts to the large model at once, causing context bloat, increasing token costs, and reducing reasoning accuracy78% similarUnverifiedLightweight models compress parameter scale through techniques such as knowledge distillation and quantization, optimizing for inference speed and cost, but make trade-offs in complex logical reasoning and long-context understanding.76% similarUnverifiedAn agentic workflow refers to having a large language model operate in a looping, multi-step manner rather than generating output in a single pass.76% similarUnverified智能路由解决用哪个模型的问题，上下文压缩解决发送多少内容的问题，两者从不同维度攻克成本76% similar
