lib.rs

//! The agent turn loop.
//!
//! Implements the standard function-calling loop: call the provider; while it
//! asks for tools, execute them and feed the results back; repeat until the
//! model ends its turn. Provider streaming chunks are folded into a turn via
//! [`polyc_llm::turn::collect_turn`]; the assistant/tool messages are
//! mapped to wire [`Message`]s for the control plane.
