Triage & Route AI Agents: 15 Real Examples

This directory currently includes 15 recipes for the triage & route pattern, across 9 roles. Triage and routing agents turn an incoming item into a clear next step. They read the request, identify the relevant signal, and send it to the person, queue, or system that can act. This pattern is useful when a team receives more tickets, leads, applications, alerts, or messages than it can inspect consistently by hand. The examples here show the pattern across different roles, but the underlying design stays practical: define the categories, make the destination explicit, and keep an escalation path for ambiguous or sensitive work. A good triage agent does not pretend to solve every request. It shortens the time between arrival and ownership, while making the decision easy to review. Every example makes its inputs, output, and handoff concrete, so you can compare real workflow boundaries before adapting the pattern to your own tools and process.
