# Helios Framework - Complete Summary

## ๐ŸŽฏ What is Helios?

Helios is a **production-ready Rust framework** for building LLM-powered agents with tool support, conversation management, and flexible configuration. It provides a clean, type-safe API for creating intelligent agents that can interact with users, execute tools, and maintain conversation context.

## ๐Ÿ’ก Example Usage

### Minimal Example
```rust
use helios::{Agent, Config};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> helios::Result<()> {
    let config = Config::from_file("config.toml")?;
    let mut agent = Agent::builder("Assistant")
        .config(config)
        .build()?;
    
    let response = agent.chat("Hello!").await?;
    println!("{}", response);
    Ok(())
}
```

### With Tools
```rust
use helios::{Agent, Config, CalculatorTool};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> helios::Result<()> {
    let config = Config::from_file("config.toml")?;
    let mut agent = Agent::builder("MathBot")
        .config(config)
        .tool(Box::new(CalculatorTool))
        .build()?;
    
    let response = agent.chat("What is 15 * 8?").await?;
    println!("{}", response);
    Ok(())
}
```
