Cisco built a digital software department using LangGraph, with the Leader Agent managing people and memory, the Junior Agent doing the work, and root cause analysis being compressed from hourly to minute-level, as Agent Engineering begins to compete in project management.

Cisco builds a multi-agent coordination framework based on LangSmith/LangGraph, belonging to agent engineering, aiming to accelerate the entire process from requirements to deployment by simulating software team collaboration. The system includes development/testing/debugging work agents and leadership agents responsible for coordination, governance, and long-term memory. Preliminary pilots show that in over 20 debugging workflows, root cause identification time decreased by 93%, saving over 200 work hours in a single month with 512 sessions; development workflow execution time decreased by 65%, benefiting from compressed downstream testing.
