PRODUCTION SCENARIO
A compliance team must scan 14,000 vendor contracts for one clause pattern and write a summary. The reading far exceeds one context window, each contract can be checked independently, and a frontier model alone costs too much and takes many hours.

Show answer and explanation
Answer: A frontier orchestrator that fans contracts out to cheaper workers and merges results
The guidance frames the choice as whether the work splits into independent pieces or is one chain of dependent steps. Independent pieces beyond one context window call for the orchestrator pattern, where workers absorb the token-heavy reading at worker rates, while the advisor pattern suits serial work with occasional hard decisions.
