Struct AgentConfig 

pub struct AgentConfig {
    pub name: CompactString,
    pub description: CompactString,
    pub system_prompt: String,
    pub model: Option<CompactString>,
    pub max_iterations: usize,
    pub tool_choice: ToolChoice,
    pub thinking: bool,
    pub heartbeat: HeartbeatConfig,
    pub members: Vec<String>,
    pub skills: Vec<String>,
    pub mcps: Vec<String>,
    pub tools: Vec<CompactString>,
}

Serializable agent configuration.

Contains all parameters for an agent: identity, system prompt, model, iteration limits, heartbeat, and delegation scope. Used both as the TOML deserialization target and the runtime agent definition.

Fields

name: CompactString

Agent identifier. Derived from TOML key, not stored in TOML.

description: CompactString

Human-readable description.

system_prompt: String

System prompt sent before each LLM request. Loaded from .md file.

model: Option<CompactString>

Model to use from the registry. None = registry’s active/default.

max_iterations: usize

Maximum iterations before stopping.

tool_choice: ToolChoice

Controls which tool the model calls.

thinking: bool

Whether to enable thinking/reasoning mode.

heartbeat: HeartbeatConfig

Heartbeat configuration. Interval 0 (the default) means no heartbeat.

members: Vec<String>

Agents this agent can delegate to via spawn_task. Empty = no delegation.

skills: Vec<String>

Skill names this agent can access. Empty = all skills (walrus default).

mcps: Vec<String>

MCP server names this agent can access. Empty = all MCPs (walrus default).

tools: Vec<CompactString>

Computed tool whitelist. Empty = all tools. Not serialized.
