Agent: Code Assistant

An agent artifact is a fully-described autonomous AI agent — including its soul, capabilities (skills it can invoke), protocols it speaks, and security permissions.

What is an Agent?

Dimension	Description
soul	Personality and tone (links to a soul artifact)
skills	Tools / capabilities the agent can invoke
protocols	Communication protocols: MCP, A2A, OpenAI-function, etc.
permissions	What the agent is allowed to do (fs, network, secrets)
triggers	How the agent is activated (message, event, schedule)
memory	Context window strategy and long-term memory config

A2A (Agent-to-Agent) Protocol

This agent publishes an A2A Agent Card at /.well-known/agent.json:

{
  "name": "code-assistant",
  "description": "Autonomous code-assistant agent",
  "version": "0.1.0",
  "capabilities": { "streaming": true, "pushNotifications": false },
  "skills": [
    { "id": "review_code",         "name": "Review Code",         "description": "Review a diff or PR" },
    { "id": "write_release_notes", "name": "Write Release Notes", "description": "Draft release notes from commits" }
  ]
}

Standards Compatibility

Standard	Support	Notes
MCP 2024-11-05	✅	Full tool-call protocol
Google A2A 0.2.5	✅	Agent card + task handoff
OpenAI Functions	✅	Function-call JSON schema
LangChain Agent	✅	Can wrap skills as LangChain tools
CrewAI	✅	Agent can be registered as CrewAI member

Notes

• A soul is optional but strongly recommended for consistent user experience.
• Skills listed under agent.skills are exposed as MCP tools automatically.
• A2A agent cards enable peer-to-peer task delegation between agents.
• Use permissions to enforce a least-privilege security model.
