* feat: add plan and delegate as built-in agent tools Give agents two self-capabilities, expressed as plain tools wired into the existing tool handler — no harness or graph, consistent with "services are the only abstraction": - plan: record/update an ordered plan, persisted to store-backed memory and surfaced in the system prompt on later turns (externalized planning). - delegate: hand a self-contained subtask to another agent. Delegate-first — if the target names a registered agent it is called via RPC; otherwise a focused ephemeral sub-agent is created with agent.New + Ask in a fresh, isolated context (loads/persists no history, no built-in tools, so it cannot re-delegate). Both are added automatically to any non-ephemeral agent, so existing micro.NewAgent services and micro chat routing get them for free. Tests are hermetic (memory store + memory registry). * feat: add agent-plan-delegate example and document plan/delegate - examples/agent-plan-delegate: coordinator that plans multi-step work, creates tasks with its own tools, and delegates notification to a separate registered comms agent over RPC. - integration tests driving the full Ask loop through a fake provider: plan tool exposure + persistence, ephemeral delegation with isolated context, delegate-first RPC routing to a registered agent. - docs: README (Building Agents + features + examples), AGENT_DESIGN (Built-in Capabilities), agent-patterns guide (Pattern 9), CLAUDE.md. * docs: blog post and guide for plan & delegate - blog/17: "Plan & Delegate: Deep Agents in Go" — what the feature is, how plan and delegate work, and a runnable getting-started path. - guides/plan-delegate: reference guide with the smallest-agent snippet, plan/delegate semantics, and the multi-agent example; linked in nav. - example: auto-detect provider/key from common env vars (ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY, ...) so 'export KEY && go run main.go' just works. - onboarding: getting-started paths now include go mod init / go get and a clone-and-run path, so a reader can actually run it from a cold start. * refactor: reframe plan/delegate blog and clean up sub-agent construction - blog/17 retitled "Agents That Plan and Delegate" and reframed around intent (plan = state intent, delegate = direct it), positioned as the next beat after blog 15/16 and tied to the existing store + agent RPC rather than re-announcing them. "Deep agents" now a single in-passing nod, matching how blog 14 references LangChain. - agent: add unexported newEphemeral constructor for sub-agents instead of type-asserting the public Agent interface to set an internal field; matches the options-only construction idiom used elsewhere. * feat: expose plan & delegate in the micro chat fallback Add agent.Builtins(opts...) — returns the built-in tools plus a handler, so the plan/delegate capabilities can be wired into a tool loop that isn't a running Agent. micro chat's direct-service fallback now reuses it (single source of truth, no duplicated handler logic), so planning and delegation are available there too, not just for registered agents. Adds a test for the accessor; notes CLI availability in the guide. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
