result = ProbabilisticResult(value='test', confidence=0.8)
print('UCUP working correctly!')
"
```

 - Your First Probabilistic Agent

Here's how to build an agent that embraces uncertainty:

```python
import asyncio
from ucup import ProbabilisticAgent, ProbabilisticResult, AlternativePath

class CustomerServiceAgent(ProbabilisticAgent):
    """A customer service agent that embraces uncertainty."""

    async def execute(self, task: str, **kwargs) -> ProbabilisticResult:
        # Choose reasoning strategy based on task complexity
        if any(word in task.lower() for word in ["complaint", "refund", "problem"]):
            reasoning_strategy = "step_back_questioning"  # Careful for sensitive topics
            confidence_adjustment = -0.1  # Be more conservative
        else:
            reasoning_strategy = "chain_of_thought"  # Efficient for routine tasks
            confidence_adjustment = 0.0

        # Generate response with the framework's probabilistic capabilities
        response, base_confidence = await self._generate_with_confidence(
            task, reasoning_strategy
        )

        # Adjust confidence based on domain knowledge
        adjusted_confidence = min(1.0, max(0.0, base_confidence + confidence_adjustment))

        # Auto-handle low confidence with framework's built-in workflows
        if adjusted_confidence < self.min_confidence_threshold:
            return await self.low_confidence_workflow(
                response, adjusted_confidence, task
            )

        # Always provide alternatives - a key UCUP principle
        alternatives = self.get_alternative_interpretations(task)

        return ProbabilisticResult(
            value=self._format_response(response, task),
            confidence=adjusted_confidence,
            alternatives=alternatives,
            metadata={
                "reasoning_strategy": reasoning_strategy,
                "sentiment_analysis": self._analyze_sentiment(task),
                "recommended_actions": self._extract_actions(response)
            }
        )

    def _analyze_sentiment(self, text: str) -> str:
        """Simple sentiment analysis."""
        negative_words = ["unhappy", "angry", "frustrated", "problem"]
        return "negative" if any(word in text.lower() for word in negative_words) else "neutral"

    def _extract_actions(self, response: str) -> list:
        """Extract recommended actions from response."""
        actions = []
        if "refund" in response.lower(): actions.append("offer_refund")
        if "escalate" in response.lower(): actions.append("escalate_to_manager")
        return actions

    def _format_response(self, response: str, task: str) -> str:
        """Format response with confidence indication."""
        confidence_indicator = "Low confidence" if response.confidence < 0.7 else "High confidence"
        return f"{confidence_indicator}: {response}"

# Usage
async def main():
    agent = CustomerServiceAgent(
        reasoning_strategies=["chain_of_thought", "tree_of_thought"],
        exploration_budget=0.2,  # Explore 20% of alternatives
        min_confidence_threshold=0.6
    )

    # Test with different scenarios
    test_cases = [
        "I need help tracking my order",
        "I'm very unhappy with your service and want a refund",
        "Can you explain your return policy?"
    ]

    for inquiry in test_cases:
        result = await agent.execute(inquiry)
        print(".2%")
        print(f"Response: {result.value}")
        if result.alternatives:
            print(f"Alternative approaches: {len(result.alternatives)}")
        print("-" * 50)

# Run the agent
asyncio.run(main())
```



Probabilistic Reasoning

UCUP agents embrace uncertainty through multiple reasoning strategies:

```python
# Different reasoning approaches for different problem types
agent = ProbabilisticAgent(
    reasoning_strategies=[
        "chain_of_thought",        # Systematic step-by-step
        "tree_of_thought",         # Explore multiple paths simultaneously
        "step_back_questioning",   # Fundamental principles
    ],
    exploration_budget=0.2,        # How much to explore alternatives
    fallback_strategy="ensemble_voting"  # Combine multiple approaches
)

# Agent automatically switches strategies based on context
result = await agent.execute("Solve this complex optimization problem")
# Uses tree_of_thought for complex problems
```

Deep Observability

Understand exactly why your agent makes decisions:

```python
from ucup import DecisionTracer, DecisionExplorer

# Set up comprehensive tracing
tracer = DecisionTracer()
session_id = tracer.start_session("customer_interaction")

# Record all decisions with full context
tracer.record_decision(
    session_id=session_id,
    available_actions=[
        {"action": "offer_refund", "reasoning": "Customer is dissatisfied"},
        {"action": "escalate_to_manager", "reasoning": "Complex issue"},
        {"action": "provide_apology", "reasoning": "Basic customer care"}
    ],
    chosen_action="escalate_to_manager",
    confidence_scores={
        "offer_refund": 0.7,
        "escalate_to_manager": 0.9,
        "provide_apology": 0.5
    },
    context_snapshot={
        "customer_value": 2500,
        "urgency": "high",
        "channel": "priority_support"
    }
)

# Analyze the decision trace
trace = tracer.end_session(session_id)
explorer = DecisionExplorer(tracer)

# What-if analysis: what if we chose differently?
what_if = await explorer.what_if_analysis(session_id, 0, "offer_refund")

# Visualize decision tree
decision_tree = explorer.visualize_decision_tree(session_id)
# Interactive visualization showing all decision paths
```

Comprehensive Testing

Test probabilistic systems with probabilistic evaluation:

```python
from ucup import AgentTestSuite, Scenario, ExpectedOutcome
from ucup.testing import CustomerServiceContext

# Define realistic test scenarios
test_scenarios = [
    Scenario(
        name="billing_complaint",
        setup=CustomerServiceContext(),
        actions=["I was charged twice and I'm very frustrated!"],
        expected_outcomes=[
            ExpectedOutcome(
                outcome_type=str,
                min_confidence=0.6,
                validation_function=lambda r: any(word in str(r).lower()
                    for word in ["refund", "credit", "sorry", "investigate"])
            )
        ],
        max_steps=5,
        success_threshold=0.8,  # Must succeed 80% of the time
        timeout_seconds=30.0
    )
]

# Run comprehensive tests
test_suite = AgentTestSuite(scenarios=test_scenarios)

async def test_agent():
    agent = CustomerServiceAgent()
    evaluation_results = await test_suite.run_tests(
        agent=agent,
        runs_per_scenario=10,  # Run each scenario 10 times
        parallel_execution=True
    )

    # Comprehensive probabilistic evaluation
    print(f"Overall Success Rate: {evaluation_results['summary']['overall_success_rate']:.1%}")
    print(f"Average Confidence: {evaluation_results['per_scenario']['billing_complaint']['avg_confidence']:.2f}")

asyncio.run(test_agent())
```

Multi-Agent Coordination

Coordinate multiple agents with different collaboration patterns:

```python
from ucup import HierarchicalCoordination, DebateCoordination, MarketBasedCoordination

# Hierarchical coordination (traditional manager-worker)
manager = SupervisorAgent()
workers = [AnalystAgent(), SpecialistAgent(), GeneralistAgent()]

coordinator = HierarchicalCoordination(
    manager_
