## Summary
|
||
|
||
Anatoli Kopadze hat einen viralen Thread über Graph Engineering für AI Agents veröffentlicht — die 4 fundamentalen Shapes (Chain, Diamond, Router, Cycle) plus einen Step-by-Step-Build-Guide.
|
||
|
||
## Thread Content
|
||
|
||
### Shape 0 – Basics
|
||
|
||
Ein Graph ist ein visueller Plan für AI Workflows. Tasks = Nodes, Dependencies = Edges. Graph Engineering optimiert den Plan so, dass unabhängige Tasks parallel laufen statt sequentiell. Ersetzt alte lineare Loops.
|
||
|
||
### Shape 1 – The Chain
|
||
|
||
A → B → C. Nur wenn Tasks wirklich voneinander abhängen. Langsam, aber einfach.
|
||
|
||
### Shape 2 – The Diamond (The Workhorse)
|
||
|
||
Start → fan-out (parallel workers) → verifier/merge → output. Perfekt für Research, Market Scans, Code Reviews. Das ist das mächtigste Pattern für den Alltag.
|
||
|
||
### Shape 3 – The Router
|
||
|
||
Decision node evaluiert Ergebnis und routet zu passendem Pfad. Branching-Logik lebt in der Graph-Struktur, nicht im Model Guess.
|
||
|
||
### Shape 4 – The Cycle
|
||
|
||
Controlled Loop für Discovery-Work (Bug Sweeps, iterative Refinements). Braucht hard stop condition.
|
||
|
||
### Step-by-Step: How to build a graph from scratch
|
||
|
||
1. Define goal
|
||
2. List every sub-task
|
||
3. Draw dependencies
|
||
4. Choose dominant shape (start with Diamond)
|
||
5. Add Router/Cycle only where needed
|
||
6. Add verification nodes
|
||
7. Set limits (max parallel, max cycles, timeout)
|
||
8. Test small
|
||
9. Visualize and iterate
|
||
10. Scale
|
||
|
||
### Key Insight
|
||
|
||
> "Most people use 10% of AI — type one prompt, close tab. The people using the other 90% aren't typing prompts at all. They're running agents in parallel, wired into graphs that check their own work."
