🎯 Why Planning Matters
Planning enables AI agents to tackle complex, multi-step problems by decomposing goals into manageable subtasks. Instead of reacting to immediate inputs, planning agents reason about future states, consider alternatives, and create structured action sequences.
Effective planning combines forward reasoning (what steps lead to the goal) with backward reasoning (what's needed to reach each step), enabling agents to solve problems that require coordinated multi-step actions.
