Build deterministic, production-ready workflows that orchestrate agents, teams, and functions with predictable execution patterns. This comprehensive guide covers all workflow types, from simple sequential processes to complex branching logic with parallel execution and dynamic routing. Unlike free-form agent interactions, these patterns provide structured automation with consistent, repeatable results ideal for production systems.

Building Blocks

The core building blocks of Agno Workflows are:
ComponentPurpose
StepBasic execution unit
AgentAI assistant with specific role
TeamCoordinated group of agents
FunctionCustom Python logic
ParallelConcurrent execution
ConditionConditional execution
LoopIterative execution
RouterDynamic routing
Agno Workflows support multiple execution patterns that can be combined to build sophisticated automation systems. Each pattern serves specific use cases and can be composed together for complex workflows.

Sequential Workflows

Linear execution with step-by-step processing

Parallel Workflows

Concurrent execution for independent tasks

Conditional Workflows

Branching logic based on conditions

Iterative Workflows

Loop-based execution with quality controls

Branching Workflows

Dynamic routing and path selection

Grouped Steps

Reusable step sequences and modular design
