Give an LLM tools. It calls them. Results go back in. It loops until it's done. That's it.

Built on top of [`@kenkaiiii/gg-ai`](../gg-ai/README.md). Part of the [GG Framework](../../README.md) monorepo.

## Install

```bash
npm i @kenkaiiii/gg-agent
```

## How it works

Create an `Agent` with a provider, model, and tools. Call `agent.prompt()` to start a conversation.

- **`for await`** gives you streaming events (`text_delta`, `tool_call_start`, `tool_call_end`, `agent_done`, etc.)
- **`await`** gives you the final result (`message`, `totalTurns`, `totalUsage`)

Same dual-nature pattern as `@kenkaiiii/gg-ai`. The `Agent` class maintains conversation history — each `prompt()` call continues the conversation.

For full control, use `agentLoop()` directly — a pure async generator that takes a messages array and options.

### Tools

Define tools with a name, description, Zod schema for parameters, and an `execute` function. The execute function receives typed args and a `ToolContext` with `signal`, `toolCallId`, and `onUpdate`.

Return a string, or a `{ content, details }` object for structured results. If `execute` throws, the error becomes a tool result (not a crash). The agent sees the error and can retry or adjust.

### Safety

- `maxTurns` (default: 100) prevents runaway loops
- `AbortSignal` support for cancellation
- Zod validation on tool args
- `maxContinuations` (default: 5) caps consecutive `pause_turn` continuations

## Events

| Event | Description |
|---|---|
| `text_delta` | Incremental text output |
| `thinking_delta` | Extended thinking output |
| `tool_call_start` | Tool invocation started (name, args) |
| `tool_call_update` | Progress update from a running tool |
| `tool_call_end` | Tool finished (result, duration, isError) |
| `server_tool_call` | Server-side tool invocation |
| `server_tool_result` | Server-side tool result |
| `turn_end` | One LLM call completed (stop reason, usage) |
| `agent_done` | All turns finished (total turns, total usage) |
| `error` | Fatal error |

## Options

| Option | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `provider` | `"anthropic" \| "openai" \| "glm" \| "moonshot"` | Required |
| `model` | `string` | Required |
| `system` | `string` | System prompt |
| `tools` | `AgentTool[]` | Tools with Zod schemas and execute functions |
| `serverTools` | `ServerToolDefinition[]` | Server-side tool definitions |
| `maxTurns` | `number` | Max LLM calls (default: 100) |
| `maxTokens` | `number` | Max output tokens per turn |
| `temperature` | `number` | Sampling temperature |
| `thinking` | `"low" \| "medium" \| "high" \| "max"` | Extended thinking |
| `apiKey` | `string` | Provider API key |
| `baseUrl` | `string` | Custom endpoint |
| `signal` | `AbortSignal` | Cancellation |
| `cacheRetention` | `"none" \| "short" \| "long"` | Prompt cache preference |
| `compaction` | `boolean` | Server-side compaction (Anthropic only) |
| `maxContinuations` | `number` | Max pause_turn continuations (default: 5) |
| `transformContext` | `(messages) => messages` | Transform messages before each LLM call |

`transformContext` is called before each LLM call. Use it for compaction, truncation, or injecting dynamic context.
