## Architecture

```
agent.py
├── AgentConfig (Pydantic Model)
│   ├── Configuration validation
│   ├── Environment variable support
│   └── Default values
│
└── Agent (Main Class)
    ├── __init__(): Initialize agent
    ├── process(): Basic processing
    ├── process_with_tools(): Tool-enhanced processing
    ├── clear_history(): Clear messages
    ├── get_history(): Get messages
    ├── set_history(): Set messages
    └── get_token_count_estimate(): Token estimation
```

## Key Design Decisions

### 1. OpenAI over Anthropic

- Lower cost options available
- Faster response times
- Better integration ecosystem

### 2. Pydantic for Configuration
- Type validation
- Clear error messages
- IDE support
- Industry standard

### 3. Explicit Tool Executor

## Performance Characteristics

### Speed
- Fast with `gpt-4o` (average 1-2s)
- Very fast with `gpt-4o-mini` (average 0.5-1s)
- Tool calling adds 1-2s per iteration

### Token Usage
- System prompt: ~50 tokens
- Average user query: 10-50 tokens
- Average response: 100-500 tokens

### Cost Estimates (per 1000 queries)
- gpt-4o: $0.50-$5.00
- gpt-4o-mini: $0.015-$0.60
- Depends on prompt length and response size
