A 33-Agent Audit of Your Own Knowledge Base
The line most people skim: every agent in a workflow can run a different model. This is the proof. A 33-agent audit, cheap readers plus one smart synthesizer, ran in under five minutes and found a real buried error. Put the expensive model where the thinking happens and run the rest on the cheap one. That's the economics of parallel agents in one example.

Each agent in a dynamic workflow can use its own model. Most people will skim past that line in Thariq's piece.
"20 agents" does not mean 20x Opus.
I just ran a 33-agent audit of my own knowledge base. 33 readers on Sonnet, one Opus synthesizer. 980k tokens, ~4.5 minutes.
It found 38 issues, including a real error buried in one file.
Put Opus where the thinking happens. The rest runs on Sonnet.
