Simplicity as a Strategy: Why OpenAI’s Agent SDK Gets It Right
Build multi-agent systems with elegance, not complexity
Einstein is supposed to have said, “Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.” Try telling that to some agent framework developers.
In the clamour to build smart AI agent systems, complexity has almost become a kind of virtue.
OpenAI’s Agent SDK takes a refreshingly different approach — one rooted in the good old KISS principle: Keep It Simple, Stupid. It doesn’t try to be clever. It tries to be clear.
In this article, I’ll show how you can build multi-agent systems using OpenAI’s SDK — and, hopefully, how keeping things simple can make life easier…
