Token Optimization and Context Window Management in Multi-Agent AI Workflows

arXiv:2608.17188v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-agent AI workflows are limited not only by model quality but by token cost, latency, and context-window quality. This paper presents a practitioner framework for token optimization and context-window management, grounded in an internal production dashboard that extracts structured work items from meetings, email, and chat with LLMs and routes summaries across workstreams. Six patterns are described: context stratification, fetch-once/process-...
