AI agent handoff with agorch.io control plane
AI agent handoff is the process of transferring a user’s task, context, and next action from one agent to another. In agorch.io, the handoff starts with a home orchestrator that recommends specialist agents and passes the right context into the next step, so work can continue without restarting the conversation.

The problem
What teams struggle with
AI agent handoff is hard because agent systems often break at the exact moment they need continuity. A user may begin with a broad question, then the work must move to a specialist that understands a narrower domain, but the original context can be lost, retyped, or interpreted differently. That creates repeated prompts, missing details, and fragmented outputs. Teams also need a practical way to discover which agent should handle a request, how to route it, and how to expose tools without turning every interaction into custom integration work. When agents are connected across separate interfaces, users cannot easily see what was handed off, what context was preserved, or which tool was used next.
The solution
How agorch.io helps
agorch.io addresses AI agent handoff with an AI agent orchestration workspace and control plane. Users chat with a home orchestrator that recommends specialist agents, then context is handed off so the next agent can continue the task more precisely. Specialists connect over MCP (Model Context Protocol) via HTTP with optional bearer token support, while the workspace includes an agent catalog, routing and recommendations, and a tool discovery/run UI. Guests can try the home chat on the marketing page, and full workspace access is available with an account.
How it works
Start with the home orchestrator
A user asks the home orchestrator in the marketing experience, which is available to guests for a first look at the workflow.
Route to the right specialist
The orchestrator recommends a specialist agent from the catalog and hands off the relevant context so the task can continue in the right place.
Discover and run tools
Specialists connect through MCP over HTTP, and the workspace shows tool discovery and a run UI for executing the next action.
Benefits
Reduces retyping by carrying context from the home orchestrator to a specialist agent
Helps users find the right agent through routing and recommendations instead of manual selection
Uses MCP over HTTP for a clear specialist connection pattern with optional bearer token support
Provides an agent catalog so teams can organize and expose specialists in one workspace
Includes tool discovery and a run UI to make handoff-to-action easier to inspect
Lets guests try the home chat before signing in, while full workspace use requires an account
