Agentic Design Patterns: A Hands-On Guide to Building Intelligent Systems: Gullí, Antonio: 9783032014016: Amazon.com: Books

Context Engineering is the discipline of designing and building dynamic systems that provides the right information and tools, in the right format, at the right time, to give a LLM everything it needs to accomplish a task.That's exactly what this book delivers. Gulli breaks down 21 agentic design patterns with real implementations using LangChain, CrewAI, and Google’s ADK. From prompt chaining and reflection loops to multi-agent orchestration and safety guardrails, it's all there with working code you can actually use.💡 A few things that stuck with me:𝗣𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗽𝘁𝘀 : Good agentic systems aren't about clever prompts. They're about architecture.𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 : Breaking complex tasks into manageable steps is what separates chatbots from real agents.𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 : It's not what the model knows, it's what you give it to work with.If you're building with AI agents or trying to figure out how to make them production ready, this one's worth your time.

Great Book! Very easy to read. It’s written very easy to understand. It’s not like most “Boring Tech manuals”. It’s written in a way you understand the what and the why. And in my opinion that’s what makes it so great. It’s not “Bland”. I’m in college and have taken an interest to agentic AI. I’ve read a lot of books and this so far is my favorite. If you want to “Understand”, then this is the book for you.
