An agent receives a prompt and then connects to one of several externak software applications that is best suited to help it fulfill the request. Which type of agent is described in this example?
Answer (1)
A router (orchestrator) tool-use agent.This agent interprets the prompt, identifies which external tool/app (e.g., web search, calculator, database, email API) best fits the task, and routes the request there. It acts as an orchestrator, selecting and invoking tools dynamically rather than solving everything internally. In some frameworks it’s called a tool-choosing agent, router, or planner-executor pattern.
