## Critical Discoveries

### Discovery #1: Hooks Enable Client-Side Caching! 🎉

**The Problem We Had**:
```python
# v1.4.8: We could track duplicates but not prevent them
# Claude SDK executes tools internally
# We receive results via ToolUseBlock/ToolResultBlock
# No way to intercept and return cached results
```

**The Solution**:
```python
# Agent SDK provides hooks that run BEFORE tool execution!

async def pre_tool_use_hook(tool_name: str, tool_input: dict) -> dict:
    """Called BEFORE tool executes - can return cached result!"""
    cached = session_cache.get(tool_name, tool_input)

    if cached is not None:
        # Return cached, skip execution entirely!
        return {
            "behavior": "deny",  # Don't execute
            "result": cached      # Use this instead
        }

    return {"behavior": "allow"}  # Execute normally

async def post_tool_use_hook(tool_name: str, tool_input: dict, result: dict):
    """Called AFTER tool executes - perfect for caching!"""
    if tool_name.startswith("mcp__"):
        session_cache.set(tool_name, tool_input, result)
```

**Impact**:
- ✅ Can now prevent 70% of duplicate API calls
- ✅ No server-side MCP changes needed
- ✅ Simple 1-2 day implementation
- ✅ Immediate cost savings

---

### Discovery #2: Native Parallel Subagents! 🚀

**The Problem We Had**:
```
Sequential Execution (Current):
┌──────────────┐
│ Main Agent   │
└──────┬───────┘
       ├─> Agent 1 (60s)
       │   Wait...
       ├─> Agent 2 (60s)
       │   Wait...
       └─> Agent 3 (60s)

Total: 180 seconds
```

**The Solution**:
```python
# Agent SDK supports parallel subagent execution!

options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    agents={
        'fundamental-analyst': {
            'description': 'Analyze financials',
            'tools': ['mcp__company-research__*'],
            'model': 'sonnet'
        },
        'technical-analyst': {
            'description': 'Analyze price patterns',
            'tools': ['mcp__stock-analyzer__*'],
            'model': 'sonnet'
        },
        'news-analyst': {
            'description': 'Analyze news sentiment',
            'tools': ['mcp__news-analyzer__*'],
            'model': 'haiku'  # Faster, cheaper!
        }
    }
)

# All three run IN PARALLEL automatically! 🎉
```

```
Parallel Execution (New):
┌──────────────┐
│ Main Agent   │
└──────┬───────┘
       ├─> Agent 1 (60s) ─┐
       ├─> Agent 2 (60s) ─┤ All run together
       └─> Agent 3 (60s) ─┘

Total: 60 seconds (3x faster!)
```

**Impact**:
- ✅ 3-4x speed improvement
- ✅ Context separation (no overload)
- ✅ Tool isolation (security)
- ✅ Model optimization (cost savings)
- ✅ Error isolation (graceful degradation)

---

### Discovery #3: Built-in Cost Tracking! 💰

**The Problem We Had**:
- No visibility into actual API costs
- Can't measure cache ROI
- Don't know which operations are expensive

**The Solution**:
```python
# Agent SDK provides native cost tracking!

for message in client.receive_messages():
    if isinstance(message, AssistantMessage) and message.usage:
        usage = message.usage

        cost_data = {
            'input_tokens': usage.input_tokens,
            'output_tokens': usage.output_tokens,
            'cache_creation': usage.cache_creation_input_tokens,
            'cache_hits': usage.cache_read_input_tokens,
            'total_cost_usd': usage.total_cost_usd  # ✅ Built-in!
        }

        # Track savings
        cache_savings = calculate_savings(usage.cache_read_input_tokens)
```

**Impact**:
- ✅ Full cost visibility
- ✅ Measure cache ROI in dollars
- ✅ Identify expensive operations
- ✅ Optimize model selection
- ✅ Track performance improvements

## Migration Guide

### Step 1: Update Package (Required)

```bash
# Uninstall old SDK
pip uninstall claude-code-sdk

# Install new SDK
pip install claude-agent-sdk
```

### Step 2: Update Imports (Required)

```python
# BEFORE (Old - v1.4.8)
from claude_code_sdk import (
    ClaudeSDKClient,
    ClaudeCodeOptions,
    AssistantMessage,
    SystemMessage,
    ToolUseBlock,
    ToolResultBlock
)

# AFTER (New - v1.5.0+)
from claude_agent_sdk import (
    ClaudeSDKClient,
    ClaudeAgentOptions,  # ⚠️ RENAMED
    AssistantMessage,
    SystemMessage,
    ToolUseBlock,
    ToolResultBlock
)
```

### Step 3: Update Options Configuration (Required)

```python
# BEFORE
self.claude_options = ClaudeCodeOptions(
    allowed_tools=allowed_tools,
    permission_mode=permission_mode,
    system_prompt=self._get_system_prompt(),
    mcp_servers=self.mcp_servers,
    add_dirs=agent_dirs
)

# AFTER
self.claude_options = ClaudeAgentOptions(  # ⚠️ RENAMED
    allowed_tools=allowed_tools,
    permission_mode=permission_mode,
    system_prompt=self._get_system_prompt(),
    mcp_servers=self.mcp_servers,
    add_dirs=agent_dirs,
    # NEW: Add hooks for caching
    hooks={
        'pre_tool_use': self._pre_tool_use_hook,
        'post_tool_use': self._post_tool_use_hook
    }
)
```

### Step 4: Add System Prompt Configuration (Required)

⚠️ **BREAKING CHANGE**: Agent SDK doesn't auto-include Claude Code prompt

```python
# Option 1: Use Claude Code preset (recommended for migration)
system_prompt = "preset:claude-code"

# Option 2: Custom prompt
system_prompt = """You are an expert investment analyst..."""

# Option 3: Append to base prompt
system_prompt = "Additional instructions..."
append_system_prompt = True
```

### Step 5: Configure Setting Sources (If using CLAUDE.md)

⚠️ **BREAKING CHANGE**: Agent SDK doesn't auto-load filesystem settings

```python
from claude_agent_sdk import SettingSource

options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    # ... other options ...
    setting_sources=[
        SettingSource.USER,      # ~/.claude/
        SettingSource.PROJECT,   # .claude/
        SettingSource.WORKSPACE  # workspace settings
    ]
)
```

### Step 6: Update pyproject.toml (Required)

```toml
# BEFORE
[project]
dependencies = [
    "claude-code-sdk>=1.0.0",
    # ... other deps
]

# AFTER
[project]
dependencies = [
    "claude-agent-sdk>=2.0.0",  # ⚠️ UPDATED
    # ... other deps
]
```

## Performance Issues & Solutions

### Issue #1: 5+ Minute Report Generation ⚠️ CRITICAL

**Current Problem**:
- Main agent generates entire report in single 300s operation
- No user feedback during generation
- Appears to be "hanging"

**Solution (v1.5.2+)**: Streaming Report Generation
```python
# Break report into sections, stream as completed
sections = [
    'executive_summary',
    'fundamental_analysis',
    'technical_analysis',
    'news_sentiment',
    'synthesis'
]

for section in sections:
    # Generate and display section immediately
    content = await generate_section(section)
    display_section(content)  # Progressive display!
```

**Impact**:
- 5x faster perceived speed
- Progressive feedback
- Better UX

---

### Issue #2: Duplicate MCP Tool Calls (70% Waste) ✅ SOLVED

**Current Problem (v1.4.8)**:
```
Tool                      | Calls | Wasted
--------------------------|-------|--------
get_company_profile       | 4     | 3 (75%)
get_company_financials    | 3     | 2 (67%)
get_analyst_ratings       | 3     | 2 (67%)
analyze_stock             | 3     | 2 (67%)

Total waste: 70%
```

**Solution (v1.5.0)**: Pre/Post Tool Hooks

```python
class InteractiveChat:
    async def _pre_tool_use_hook(self, tool_name: str, tool_input: dict) -> dict:
        """Check cache before tool execution"""
        if not tool_name.startswith("mcp__"):
            return {"behavior": "allow"}

        # Check cache
        cached = self.session_cache.get(tool_name, tool_input)

        if cached is not None:
            # Cache hit - skip execution!
            self.performance_metrics['cache_hits'] += 1
            self.notifications.show_status(f"✅ Cache hit: {tool_name}")

            return {
                "behavior": "deny",
                "message": f"Using cached result",
                "result": cached
            }

        # Cache miss - allow execution
        self.performance_metrics['cache_misses'] += 1
        return {"behavior": "allow"}

    async def _post_tool_use_hook(self, tool_name: str, tool_input: dict, result: dict):
        """Cache result after execution"""
        if tool_name.startswith("mcp__"):
            self.session_cache.set(tool_name, tool_input, result)
            self.notifications.show_status(f"💾 Cached: {tool_name}")
```

**Impact**:
- ✅ 70% API call reduction
- ✅ 2x faster for repeated queries
- ✅ Significant cost savings
- ✅ Better user experience

### Issue #3: Sequential Tool Execution ✅ SOLVED

**Current Problem**:
```
Sequential: 180 seconds
Agent 1 (60s) → Agent 2 (60s) → Agent 3 (60s)
```

**Solution (v1.5.1)**: Parallel Subagents

```python
# File: src/navam/agent_configs.py

INVESTMENT_RESEARCH_AGENTS = {
    'fundamental-analyst': {
        'description': 'Analyzes company financials and fundamentals',
        'prompt': """Analyze financial statements, ratios, and analyst ratings.
        Provide data-driven insights with confidence levels.""",
        'tools': [
            'mcp__company-research__get_company_profile',
            'mcp__company-research__get_company_financials',
            'mcp__company-research__get_analyst_ratings'
        ],
        'model': 'sonnet'
    },

    'technical-analyst': {
        'description': 'Analyzes price patterns and technical indicators',
        'prompt': """Analyze price trends, volume, and technical indicators.
        Focus on actionable trading signals.""",
        'tools': [
            'mcp__stock-analyzer__analyze_stock',
            'mcp__stock-analyzer__get_moving_averages'
        ],
        'model': 'sonnet'
    },

    'news-analyst': {
        'description': 'Analyzes recent news and market sentiment',
        'prompt': """Analyze recent company news and sentiment.
        Provide key takeaways and risk factors.""",
        'tools': [
            'mcp__news-analyzer__get_company_news',
            'mcp__news-analyzer__analyze_sentiment'
        ],
        'model': 'haiku'  # Faster, cheaper for summaries
    }
}

# Usage in chat.py
options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    system_prompt=investment_prompt,
    agents=INVESTMENT_RESEARCH_AGENTS,  # Parallel execution!
    hooks={
        'pre_tool_use': self._pre_tool_use_hook,
        'post_tool_use': self._post_tool_use_hook
    }
)
```

**Implementation**:
```python
# chat.py additions

async def _pre_tool_use_hook(self, tool_name: str, tool_input: dict) -> dict:
    """Check cache before tool execution"""
    if not tool_name.startswith("mcp__"):
        return {"behavior": "allow"}

    cached = self.session_cache.get(tool_name, tool_input)
    if cached is not None:
        self.performance_metrics['cache_hits_actual'] += 1
        return {"behavior": "deny", "result": cached}

    return {"behavior": "allow"}

async def _post_tool_use_hook(self, tool_name: str, tool_input: dict, result: dict):
    """Cache result after execution"""
    if tool_name.startswith("mcp__"):

## Testing & Validation

### Unit Tests

```python
# tests/test_hooks.py

async def test_pre_tool_use_cache_hit():
    """Test pre-hook returns cached result"""
    chat = InteractiveChat()

    # Prime cache
    chat.session_cache.set('test_tool', {'arg': 'value'}, {'result': 'cached'})

    # Hook should return cached result
    response = await chat._pre_tool_use_hook('test_tool', {'arg': 'value'})

    assert response['behavior'] == 'deny'
    assert response['result'] == {'result': 'cached'}

async def test_post_tool_use_caching():
    """Test post-hook caches result"""
    chat = InteractiveChat()

    # Hook should cache result
    await chat._post_tool_use_hook(
        'mcp__test__tool',
        {'arg': 'value'},
        {'result': 'data'}
    )

    # Verify cached
    cached = chat.session_cache.get('mcp__test__tool', {'arg': 'value'})
    assert cached == {'result': 'data'}
```

### Integration Tests

```bash
# Test full workflow with caching
navam /invest:research-stock AAPL

# Run again (should show cache hits)
navam /invest:research-stock AAPL

# Verify cache statistics
navam /cache

# Verify performance metrics
navam /perf
```

### Performance Benchmarks

```python
# benchmark.py

import time
import asyncio

async def benchmark_sequential_vs_parallel():
    """Compare sequential vs parallel execution"""

    # Sequential (old way)
    start = time.time()
    await run_sequential_agents()

## Risk Management

### High Priority Risks

#### Risk 1: Migration Breaking Changes
- **Probability**: MEDIUM
- **Impact**: HIGH
- **Mitigation**:
  - Comprehensive test suite before migration
  - Gradual rollout (alpha → beta → production)
  - Pin to specific Agent SDK version
  - Document rollback procedure
  - Test in isolated environment first

#### Risk 2: Hook Performance Overhead
- **Probability**: LOW
- **Impact**: MEDIUM
- **Mitigation**:
  - Benchmark hook overhead (<5ms expected)
  - Optimize cache lookup (O(1) hash-based)
  - Monitor performance metrics
  - A/B test with/without hooks

#### Risk 3: Subagent Context Confusion
- **Probability**: MEDIUM
- **Impact**: MEDIUM
- **Mitigation**:
  - Clear, focused agent prompts
  - Strict tool access controls
  - Extensive testing with diverse queries
  - Monitor agent output quality

### Rollback Plan

```bash
# If issues arise, quick rollback:

# 1. Revert package
pip uninstall claude-agent-sdk
pip install claude-code-sdk==1.4.7

# 2. Revert code
git revert <migration-commit-sha>

# 3. Rebuild and test
pip install -e .
pytest tests/

# 4. Deploy previous version
# (specific steps depend on deployment method)
```
