## Agent System

The **Agent** class is the core of Buddy AI. It represents an intelligent AI agent with memory, tools, knowledge, and conversation capabilities.

### Basic Agent Creation

```python
from buddy import Agent
from buddy.models.openai import OpenAIChat

# Minimal agent
agent = Agent(
    model=OpenAIChat(),
    instructions="You are a helpful assistant"
)

# Detailed agent configuration
agent = Agent(
    name="DataAnalyst", 
    model=OpenAIChat(model="gpt-4"),
    description="An expert data analyst and visualization specialist",
    instructions=[
        "Analyze data thoroughly and provide insights",
        "Create visualizations when helpful",
        "Explain technical concepts clearly"
    ],
    markdown=True,  # Format output as markdown
    debug_mode=True  # Enable detailed logging
)
```

### Agent Configuration Options

#### Basic Settings
```python
agent = Agent(
    name="MyAgent",           # Agent name
    agent_id="unique-id",     # Optional unique identifier
    model=OpenAIChat(),       # Language model to use
    description="Brief description of the agent",
    introduction="Hi! I'm your assistant.",  # Intro message
    user_id="user123",        # Default user ID
    session_id="session123"   # Default session ID
)
```

#### Instructions & Behavior
```python
agent = Agent(
    instructions="You are a helpful assistant",  # String
    instructions=[  # List of instructions
        "Be helpful and informative",
        "Ask clarifying questions when needed",
        "Provide examples in your explanations"
    ],
    instructions=lambda: f"Today is {datetime.now()}",  # Dynamic function
    
    goal="Help users with their questions",
    expected_output="Clear, helpful responses",
    additional_context="Company: Acme Corp",
    
    markdown=True,  # Format responses in markdown
    add_datetime_to_instructions=True,  # Include current time
    add_location_to_instructions=True   # Include location context
)
```

#### Memory Configuration
```python
from buddy.memory.agent import AgentMemory

agent = Agent(
    memory=AgentMemory(),  # Enable conversation memory
    add_history_to_messages=True,  # Include chat history in context
    num_history_runs=5,  # Number of previous conversations to include
    
    # Advanced memory features
    enable_agentic_memory=True,  # Let agent manage its own memories
    enable_user_memories=True,   # Store user-specific information
    enable_session_summaries=True,  # Create session summaries
    cache_session=True           # Cache session in memory for faster access
)
```

### Running Agents

#### Basic Conversation
```python
# Single message
response = agent.run("What's the weather like?")
print(response.content)

# Streaming response
for chunk in agent.run("Tell me a story", stream=True):
    print(chunk.content, end="", flush=True)

# Async execution  
async def chat():
    response = await agent.arun("Hello!")
    print(response.content)
```

#### Advanced Run Options
```python
# Run with additional context
response = agent.run(
    "Analyze this data",
    context={"dataset": "sales_data.csv", "year": 2024}
)

# Run with specific session
response = agent.run(
    "Continue our conversation",
    session_id="important-session"
)

# Run with retries and error handling
response = agent.run(
    "Complex task",
    retries=3,
    delay_between_retries=2,
    exponential_backoff=True
)
```

### Agent Response Objects

```python
response = agent.run("Hello!")

# Response properties
print(response.content)          # Main response text
print(response.role)             # Response role (assistant)
print(response.model)            # Model used
print(response.metrics)          # Performance metrics
print(response.session_id)       # Session identifier
print(response.citations)        # Knowledge citations if any
print(response.references)       # Reference materials

# Tool calls (if any)
if response.tool_calls:
    for tool_call in response.tool_calls:
        print(f"Tool: {tool_call.function_name}")
        print(f"Args: {tool_call.function_args}")

# Events (streaming responses)
if hasattr(response, 'events'):
    for event in response.events:
        print(f"Event: {event.type} - {event.data}")
```

### Agent with Custom Context

def get_current_user():
    return {"name": "John", "role": "Developer"}

agent = Agent(
    context={"user": get_current_user},
    resolve_context=True  # Execute functions in context
)

# Context in run calls
response = agent.run(
    "Create a report",
    context={"format": "PDF", "deadline": "tomorrow"}
)
```

### System Messages

```python
# String system message
agent = Agent(
    system_message="You are a senior software engineer with 10+ years experience"
)

# Dynamic system message
def create_system_message():
    return f"Current time: {datetime.now()}, be helpful!"

agent = Agent(system_message=create_system_message)

# Disable default system message creation
agent = Agent(
    system_message="Custom message only",
    create_default_system_message=False
)
```

### Error Handling & Debugging

```python
# Enable debug mode
agent = Agent(
    debug_mode=True,
    debug_level=2  # 1 = basic, 2 = detailed
)

# Error handling in runs
try:
    response = agent.run("Complex request")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Agent run failed: {e}")

## 6. Workflows

Buddy's workflow system enables orchestration of multiple agents, sequential processing, parallel execution, and complex business logic automation.

### Basic Workflow Setup

```python
from buddy import Agent, Workflow
from buddy.models import OpenAIChat, Claude

# Create agents for workflow
researcher = Agent(
    name="Researcher",
    model=OpenAIChat(id="gpt-4o"),
    instructions="Research topics thoroughly and provide detailed findings"
)

writer = Agent(
    name="Writer", 
    model=Claude(id="claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022"),
    instructions="Write engaging content based on research findings"
)

editor = Agent(
    name="Editor",
    model=OpenAIChat(id="gpt-4o"),
    instructions="Review and edit content for clarity and accuracy"
)

# Create sequential workflow
content_workflow = Workflow(
    agents=[researcher, writer, editor],
    name="ContentCreation",
    description="Research, write, and edit content workflow"
)

# Run workflow
result = content_workflow.run(
    "Create an article about renewable energy trends in 2026",
    inputs={
        "topic": "renewable energy trends",
        "target_audience": "general public",
        "length": "1000 words"
    }
)

print(f"Final content: {result.final_output}")
print(f"Workflow steps: {result.step_results}")
```

### Parallel Workflow Execution

```python
from buddy import Workflow, Agent
from buddy.workflow import ParallelWorkflow

# Create specialized agents
market_analyst = Agent(
    name="MarketAnalyst",
    model=OpenAIChat(),
    instructions="Analyze market trends and provide insights"
)

tech_analyst = Agent(
    name="TechAnalyst", 
    model=Claude(),
    instructions="Analyze technical aspects and innovations"
)

financial_analyst = Agent(
    name="FinancialAnalyst",
    model=OpenAIChat(),
    instructions="Analyze financial data and projections"
)

# Create parallel workflow
analysis_workflow = ParallelWorkflow(
    agents=[market_analyst, tech_analyst, financial_analyst],
    name="ComprehensiveAnalysis",
    aggregation_strategy="combine",  # Options: combine, vote, select_best
    timeout=300  # 5 minutes timeout
)

# Run parallel analysis
result = analysis_workflow.run(
    "Analyze the electric vehicle market for 2026",
    parallel_inputs={
        "MarketAnalyst": "Focus on market size, growth, and competition",
        "TechAnalyst": "Focus on battery technology and charging infrastructure", 
        "FinancialAnalyst": "Focus on investment trends and valuations"
    }
)

print(f"Combined analysis: {result.combined_output}")
print(f"Individual results: {result.parallel_results}")
```

### Conditional Workflows

```python
from buddy.workflow import ConditionalWorkflow

# Create agents for different paths
classifier = Agent(
    name="Classifier",
    model=OpenAIChat(),
    instructions="Classify the type of customer inquiry"
)

sales_agent = Agent(
    name="SalesAgent",
    model=Claude(), 
    instructions="Handle sales inquiries and generate quotes"
)

support_agent = Agent(
    name="SupportAgent",

    instructions="Handle technical support questions"
)

billing_agent = Agent(
    name="BillingAgent",
    model=Claude(),
    instructions="Handle billing and account inquiries"
)

# Create conditional workflow
def route_inquiry(classification_result):
    """Route inquiries based on classification."""
    inquiry_type = classification_result.get("type", "").lower()

    elif "billing" in inquiry_type or "payment" in inquiry_type:
        return "billing"
    else:
        return "support"  # Default to support

customer_service_workflow = ConditionalWorkflow(
    classifier=classifier,
    routing_function=route_inquiry,
    agents={
        "sales": sales_agent,
        "support": support_agent,
        "billing": billing_agent
    },
    name="CustomerService"
)

# Run conditional workflow
result = customer_service_workflow.run(
    "I'm interested in your enterprise pricing plans and need a quote for 100 users"
)

print(f"Routed to: {result.selected_agent}")
print(f"Response: {result.output}")
```

### Workflow with State Management

```python
from buddy.workflow import StatefulWorkflow

class OrderProcessingWorkflow(StatefulWorkflow):
    def __init__(self):
        # Initialize agents
        validator = Agent(
            name="OrderValidator",

        super().__init__(
            agents=[validator, payment_processor, fulfillment_agent],
            state_schema={
                "order_id": str,
                "customer_id": str, 
                "items": list,
                "payment_status": str,

        )
        
        if "valid" in result.lower():
            state["validation_status"] = "approved"
            return state, "proceed"
        else:
            state["validation_status"] = "rejected" 
            return state, "stop"
    
    def process_payment(self, state):
        """Step 2: Process payment"""
        result = self.agents["PaymentProcessor"].run(
            f"Process payment for order {state['order_id']}"
        )
        
        if "success" in result.lower():
            state["payment_status"] = "completed"
            return state, "proceed"
        else:
            state["payment_status"] = "failed"
            return state, "retry"
    
    def fulfill_order(self, state):

        state["fulfillment_status"] = "shipped"
        state["tracking_number"] = "TRK123456789"  # Would be extracted from result
        return state, "complete"

# Use stateful workflow
order_workflow = OrderProcessingWorkflow()

initial_state = {

    "fulfillment_status": "pending",
    "tracking_number": None
}

final_state = order_workflow.run(initial_state)
print(f"Final order state: {final_state}")
```

### Workflow with Human-in-the-Loop

```python
from buddy.workflow import HumanInLoopWorkflow

# Create workflow that requires human approval
approval_workflow = HumanInLoopWorkflow(
    agents=[
        Agent(name="ContentGenerator", instructions="Generate marketing content"),
        Agent(name="Reviewer", instructions="Review content for compliance") 
    ],
    human_approval_points=["after_generation", "before_publication"],
    approval_timeout=3600  # 1 hour timeout for human response
)

def human_approval_handler(step_name, content, context):
    """Handle human approval requests."""
    print(f"\n--- HUMAN APPROVAL REQUIRED ---")
    print(f"Step: {step_name}")
    print(f"Content: {content}")
    print(f"Context: {context}")
    
    while True:
        decision = input("Approve? (yes/no/edit): ").lower()
        if decision == "yes":
            return {"approved": True, "feedback": None}
        elif decision == "no": 
            feedback = input("Feedback for revision: ")
            return {"approved": False, "feedback": feedback}
        elif decision == "edit":
            edited_content = input("Enter edited content: ")
            return {"approved": True, "content": edited_content}

# Set approval handler
approval_workflow.set_approval_handler(human_approval_handler)

# Run workflow with human approval
result = approval_workflow.run("Create a social media campaign for our new product launch")
```

### Workflow Error Handling and Retry

```python
from buddy.workflow import RobustWorkflow
from buddy.exceptions import WorkflowException

class ResilientWorkflow(RobustWorkflow):
    def __init__(self, agents, max_retries=3, retry_delay=5):
        super().__init__(agents)

## 9. Deployment Options

Buddy provides multiple deployment options for production environments, from simple local deployments to enterprise-scale cloud infrastructure.

### FastAPI Deployment

```python
# app.py - FastAPI deployment
from buddy import Agent
from buddy.models import OpenAIChat
from buddy.app.fastapi import BuddyFastAPI
from fastapi import FastAPI
from fastapi.middleware.cors import CORSMiddleware

# Create agent

    model=OpenAIChat(id="gpt-4o"),
    instructions="You are a helpful production assistant",
    max_loops=3,
    timeout=30
)
