Features Demonstrated

Input Types

Required inputs: name, code, language
Optional inputs: style?, tech_stack?, goal?

LLM Models

Claude 3.5 Haiku: Fast, cost-effective (greeting)
Claude 3.5 Sonnet: Balanced performance (summarizer, test-generator, doc-generator, translator)
Claude Opus 4.5: Maximum capability (code-reviewer, architect, debugger, refactor)

Validation Rules

must_contain: Ensure specific sections in output
format: Enforce output format (markdown, text)
min_length/max_length: Control output size

Temperature Settings

0.3: Deterministic, factual (code review, debugging, translation)
0.4-0.5: Balanced creativity (architecture, refactoring)
0.8: More creative (greeting)

Max Tokens

150: Short responses (greeting)
500-1000: Medium responses (summarizer, translator)
2000-3000: Detailed responses (code review, documentation)
4000: Comprehensive responses (architecture)

Testing Agents

CLI Testing

# Validate agent
typedialog-ag validate agents/greeting.agent.mdx

# Transpile to Nickel
typedialog-ag transpile agents/greeting.agent.mdx

# Execute (interactive)
typedialog-ag agents/greeting.agent.mdx

HTTP Server Testing

# Start server
typedialog-ag serve --port 8765

# Test health
curl http://localhost:8765/health

# Validate agent
curl -X POST http://localhost:8765/validate \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"agent_file":"agents/greeting.agent.mdx"}'

# Execute agent
curl -X POST http://localhost:8765/agents/greeting/execute \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name":"World"}'

Best Practices

Clear Role: Define specific role in @agent directive
Type Inputs: Declare input types explicitly
Validate Output: Use @validate to ensure quality
Right Model: Choose LLM based on task complexity
Temperature: Lower for factual, higher for creative
Token Limits: Set appropriate max_tokens for task
Prompts: Be specific and provide clear instructions
Examples: Include examples in prompt when helpful

Environment Variables

Ensure you have API keys configured:

export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...  # If using OpenAI models

Cache

The system automatically caches transpiled Nickel code:

# Check cache stats
typedialog-ag cache stats

# Clear cache
typedialog-ag cache clear
