Buy multi-agent orchestration unless it's your core differentiator — most teams should not build it
2026 build-vs-buy guidance: buy orchestration when it isn't your product's differentiator — specifically dev teams under ~20 engineers needing standard code workflows, teams juggling 10+ tool integrations, or orgs where compliance favors a vendor shared-responsibility model. Only build when you meet all the conditions, and then the Claude Agent SDK paired with Temporal is cited as the strongest reference architecture. Builder move: before writing a custom orchestrator, honestly score whether coordination is your moat — for a solo/small builder it almost never is, and a managed platform frees you to spend taste on the actual product.
