Foundational pattern
Single AI Agent
One model answers directly — no tools, no retrieval, no other agents.
Best for quick, self-contained questionsHow it works
The Single AI Agent pattern
The simplest pattern. A prompt goes to one language model and its reply comes straight back. There is nothing between the question and the answer — no document lookup, no function calls, no second opinion.
- 1
User question
The visitor's prompt is sent to the model as-is.
- 2
The LLM
A single model call. It reasons from what it already learned during training.
- 3
Direct answer
The response is returned with no post-processing.
Best for
General knowledge, explanations, drafting, and reformatting — anything the model can answer from memory. It is fast and cheap, but it cannot look anything up, so it is a poor fit for private data or facts that change.
