+# Research Orchestration Agent
+
+A multi-agent research pipeline demonstrating SequentialAgent orchestration
+with multi-model support via LiteLLM.
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+User Query → SearchAgent → ScraperAgent → CuratorAgent → WriterAgent → Report
+```
+
+## Features Demonstrated
+
+* **SequentialAgent** - Pipeline orchestration pattern
+* **LiteLLM integration** - Multi-model support
+* **Google Search grounding** - Built-in search tool
+* **Custom tools** - Web scraping with BeautifulSoup
+
+## Sample Query
+
+* What are the latest developments in AI agent frameworks?
+* Research the current state of autonomous agents.
+
+## To Run
+
+```bash
+# CLI
+adk run contributing/samples/research_orchestration
+
+# Web UI
+adk web contributing/samples
+```
+
+## Requirements
+
+* `google-adk` with LiteLLM extension: `pip install google-adk[extensions]`
+* BeautifulSoup: `pip install beautifulsoup4 lxml`
+* Configure API keys in `.env` for your chosen models
