## 🌟 What is Nexagen?

Nexagen (Next-Generation Agent) is a revolutionary framework that simplifies the creation of multi-agent systems by leveraging the **Model Context Protocol (MCP)**. Instead of manually orchestrating complex agent interactions, Nexagen automatically handles agent scheduling, communication, and coordination.

### ✨ Key Features

- 🔧 **MCP-Based Architecture**: Build agents using standardized MCP protocol
- 🤖 **Automatic Agent Discovery**: Auto-detect and integrate MCP agents
- 🎯 **Intelligent Orchestration**: Multi-level task scheduling and agent coordination  
- 📋 **Industry Compatible**: Generate standard agent cards
- 🚀 **Zero-Configuration**: Focus on individual agents, not system complexity
- 🌐 **Scalable Design**: From single agents to complex multi-agent networks
- 🪄 **Magic MCP Wrapping**: One command to wrap your entire multi-agent system as a single MCP agent for Claude Desktop
- 🎨 **Enhanced Stability**: Robust JSON handling with zero parsing errors (v1.2.3+)

## 🆕 Latest Updates

### Version 1.2.3

**Key Improvements:**

1. **Forced JSON Mode**
   - All LLM calls now use `response_format: {"type": "json_object"}`
   - Ensures strict JSON-only output from language models

2. **Log Isolation**
   - All debug information redirected to `orchestrator.log`
   - Claude Desktop no longer sees internal logging
   - Clean execution process visible to users

3. **Stricter Prompts**
   - Explicit prohibition of explanatory text
   - Clear JSON-only output requirements
   - Reduced ambiguity in LLM responses

4. **Optimized Information Flow**
   - Simplified tool information sent to LLM
   - Reduced response complexity
   - Higher parsing success rate

5. **Reduced Temperature**
   - Lowered from 0.2 to 0.1 for more deterministic output
   - Improved stability over creativity for parameter generation

6. **Retry Mechanism**
   - Automatic retry on parsing failures
   - Graceful degradation without exposing errors to users

**Result:** Users now experience clean, professional execution in Claude Desktop with zero JSON error messages.

### Claude Desktop Integration

```
Claude Desktop → Nexagen MCP Agent → Orchestrator → Internal Agents
```

This architecture enables:
1. Building complex multi-agent systems locally
2. Wrapping them as a single MCP agent with one command
3. Using them in Claude Desktop immediately
4. Getting intelligent task routing automatically

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Installation

```bash
pip install nexagen
```

### Create Your First Multi-Agent System

#### 1. Initialize a new project
```bash
nexagen create my_agent_system
cd my_agent_system
```

#### 2. Configure environment variables
```bash
# Edit .env file
BASE_URL=https://api.your-llm-provider.com
API_KEY=your-api-key-here
model_name=your-model-name
```

#### 3. Develop your MCP agents
Create individual agents in the `mcp_agents/` directory. Each agent should be a separate folder with its MCP implementation.

Example minimal MCP agent:

```python
# server.py
from mcp.server.fastmcp import FastMCP

mcp = FastMCP("Chart Agent")

@mcp.tool()
def draw_chart(data: list, title: str = "Chart") -> str:
    """Generate a chart from data array"""
    # Your chart generation logic here
    return f"chart_{title}.png"

if __name__ == "__main__":
    mcp.run()
```

#### 4. Configure MCP agents
Edit `mcp.json` to register your agents:
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "chart": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "--directory", "/path/to/your/chart-agent",
        "run", "server.py"
      ]
    },
    "data_processor": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["/path/to/your/data-agent/main.py"]
    }
  }
}
```

#### 5. Build the multi-agent system
```bash
nexagen build
```

This generates:
- `orchestrator_agent.py` - Intelligent task coordinator with enhanced JSON stability
- `mcp_client.py` - MCP communication handler
- `agent_executor.py` - Individual agent task executor
- `pipeline.py` - End-to-end task processing
- `agent_cards/` - Standardized agent metadata
- `mcp_agents/mcp_cards.json` - Detailed capability information

#### 6. Run and test
```bash
nexagen run
```

### 🪄 Magic Wrap as MCP Agent

The **magic** command automatically wraps your entire multi-agent system as a single MCP agent for Claude Desktop integration:

```bash
# After building your multi-agent system
nexagen magic
```

This generates:
- ✨ `mcp_server.py` - Complete MCP server wrapping all your agents
- 📦 `pyproject.toml` - All dependencies configured
- 🎯 All internal agent tools exposed with intelligent routing
- 📖 `NEXAGEN_MCP_USAGE.md` - Detailed usage instructions

**Add to Claude Desktop:**
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nexagen": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "--directory",
        "/path/to/your/project",
        "run",
        "mcp_server.py"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

**Use in Claude:**
```
"Please use nexagen to analyze Q1 sales data [120, 132, 101, 134, 90, 230] 
and create a visualization chart"
```

Claude automatically calls the `nexagen_route` tool, which:
1. Splits your task into subtasks
2. Selects the right agents
3. Generates parameters
4. Executes and aggregates results

All internal agent tools are also directly accessible with namespace prefixes (e.g., `chart_draw_chart`)!

## 🎯 Examples

### Example 1: Chart Generation System

```python
# After building your system with chart agents
from pipeline import agent_pipeline

# The orchestrator automatically handles:
# 1. Task analysis
# 2. Agent selection  
# 3. Parameter generation
# 4. Execution coordination

result = agent_pipeline(
    "Create two line charts: "
    "Jan: 89, Feb: 98, Mar: 56. "
    "Second chart: 90, 90, 90"
)
print(result)
```

### Example 2: Multi-Modal Data Processing

```python
# With multiple agents (chart, data, file processors)
result = agent_pipeline(
    "Process the sales data from Q1, "
    "calculate growth rates, and "
    "create visualization charts"
)
```

### Example 3: Claude Desktop Integration

After running `nexagen magic` and configuring Claude Desktop:

```
User: "Analyze this sales data and create visualizations: 
      Q1: 120K, Q2: 135K, Q3: 142K, Q4: 158K"

Claude: [Uses nexagen_route automatically]
        ✅ Task split into subtasks
        ✅ Data analysis agent selected
        ✅ Chart generation agent selected
        ✅ Results aggregated
        
Output: "Analysis complete! Growth rate is 31.7% YoY. 
        Charts saved to: sales_trend_2024.png"
```

## 🔧 Advanced Configuration

### Custom Agent Cards

Nexagen automatically generates compatible agent cards, but you can customize them:

```json
{
  "name": "Chart Agent",
  "description": "Handles chart-related operations",
  "url": "http://localhost:3000/",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "capabilities": {
    "streaming": false,
    "pushNotifications": false,
    "stateTransitionHistory": false
  },
  "skills": [
    {
      "id": "draw_chart",
      "name": "draw_chart", 
      "description": "Generate charts from data arrays",
      "tags": ["visualization", "charts"],
      "examples": []
    }
  ]
}
```

### Custom Orchestration Logic

The auto-generated `orchestrator_agent.py` can be modified to implement custom task splitting and agent selection logic. Version 1.2.3+ includes enhanced JSON handling:

```python
# Key configurations in orchestrator_agent.py
class OrchestratorAgent:
    def __init__(self):
        # Logging to file instead of console
        logging.basicConfig(
            filename='orchestrator.log',
            level=logging.DEBUG
        )
        
        # LLM configuration with strict JSON mode
        self.llm_config = {
            "temperature": 0.1,  # Low temperature for stability
            "response_format": {"type": "json_object"}  # Force JSON
        }
```

### Debugging

View detailed logs without affecting Claude Desktop experience:

```bash
# Monitor orchestrator operations
tail -f orchestrator.log

# Clear logs when needed
rm orchestrator.log
```
