Agent

A system where an LLM does more than answer: it decides which tools to call, in what order, and keeps iterating until it reaches a goal.

In practice

An agent reads email, writes to a database, sends Slack messages. The hard part is handling errors, infinite loops, cost, and tool security. For simple cases a linear pipeline is more reliable than a real agent.
