Agents and tools

Core platform1 min read

Build bounded specialists and register typed, auditable capabilities.

ManagerAgent: Owns the user run and calls bounded specialists as tools.
ResearchAgent: Performs read-only web, connector, and market research.
CodeAgent: Plans and reviews patches; execution is delegated to a sandbox.
PortfolioAgent: Computes balances, allocation, PnL, and strategy artifacts.
RiskAgent: Returns allow, reject, or approval-required decisions independently.

Every external input and tool contract is validated with shared Zod schemas.
Every tool declares a risk tier, required scopes, rate limit, timeout, idempotency behavior, audit event, and approval rule.
Use agents-as-tools for bounded work. Use handoffs only when the specialist should own the rest of the user-facing turn.
Never expose unrestricted shell, provider secrets, raw signing, or exchange withdrawals to an LLM-facing agent.
