Trait Agent 

pub trait Agent: Send + Sync {
    // Required methods
    fn id(&self) -> &str;
    fn model(&self) -> &str;
    fn system_prompt(&self) -> &str;
    fn max_rounds(&self) -> usize;
    fn chat_options(&self) -> Option<&ChatOptions>;
    fn fallback_models(&self) -> &[String];
    fn llm_retry_policy(&self) -> &LlmRetryPolicy;
    fn tool_executor(&self) -> Arc<dyn ToolExecutor>;
    fn behavior(&self) -> &dyn AgentBehavior;

    // Provided methods
    fn step_tool_provider(&self) -> Option<Arc<dyn StepToolProvider>> { ... }
    fn llm_executor(&self) -> Option<Arc<dyn LlmExecutor>> { ... }
    fn action_deserializer_registry(&self) -> Arc<ActionDeserializerRegistry> { ... }
}

The sole interface the agent loop sees.

Agent encapsulates all runtime configuration, execution strategies, and agent behavior into a single trait. The loop calls methods on this trait to obtain LLM settings, tool execution strategies, and phase-hook behavior.

Three-Layer Architecture

• Loop: pure engine — calls Agent methods, manages lifecycle
• Agent: complete agent unit — provides config + behavior
• AgentOS: assembly — resolves definitions into Agent instances

The default implementation is BaseAgent.

Required Methods

fn id(&self) -> &str

Unique identifier for this agent.

fn model(&self) -> &str

Model identifier (e.g., “gpt-4”, “claude-3-opus”).

fn system_prompt(&self) -> &str

System prompt for the LLM.

fn max_rounds(&self) -> usize

Loop-budget hint (core loop does not enforce this directly).

fn chat_options(&self) -> Option<&ChatOptions>

Chat options for the LLM.

fn fallback_models(&self) -> &[String]

Fallback model ids used when the primary model fails.

fn llm_retry_policy(&self) -> &LlmRetryPolicy

Retry policy for LLM inference failures.

fn tool_executor(&self) -> Arc<dyn ToolExecutor>

Tool execution strategy (parallel, sequential, or custom).

fn behavior(&self) -> &dyn AgentBehavior

The agent behavior (phase hooks) dispatched by the loop.

Provided Methods

fn step_tool_provider(&self) -> Option<Arc<dyn StepToolProvider>>

Optional per-step tool provider.

When None, the loop uses a static provider derived from the tool map.

fn llm_executor(&self) -> Option<Arc<dyn LlmExecutor>>

Optional LLM executor override.

When None, the loop uses GenaiLlmExecutor with Client::default().

fn action_deserializer_registry(&self) -> Arc<ActionDeserializerRegistry>

Registry for deserializing pending-write actions during crash recovery.
