 /**
  * MultiAgentGraph extends StandardGraph to support dynamic multi-agent workflows
  * with handoffs, fan-in/fan-out, and other composable patterns.
  *
  * Key behavior:
- * - Agents with ONLY handoff edges: Can dynamically route to any handoff destination
- * - Agents with ONLY direct edges: Always follow their direct edges
- * - Agents with BOTH: Use Command for exclusive routing (handoff OR direct, not both)
- *   - If handoff occurs: Only the handoff destination executes
- *   - If no handoff: Direct edges execute (potentially in parallel)
+ * - Agents with ONLY transfer edges: Can dynamically route to any transfer destination
+ * - Agents with ONLY sequence edges: Always follow their sequence edges
+ * - Agents with BOTH: Use Command for exclusive routing (transfer OR sequence, not both)
+ *   - If transfer occurs: Only the transfer destination executes
+ *   - If no transfer: Sequence edges execute (potentially in parallel)
  *
- * This enables the common pattern where an agent either delegates (handoff)
- * OR continues its workflow (direct edges), but not both simultaneously.
