 "title": "Build a code-first agent loop with agent_kit",
 "page_title": "How to build a code-first agent loop with agent_kit with Goal Flow",
 "summary": "Use the vendored agent_kit SDK to create a ReAct or custom agent and run it inside a graph node.",
 "who": "A Python developer who needs an agent that calls tools, routes between models, and uses skills, without a visual editor.",
 "problem": "Plain workflow graphs cannot express open-ended tool-using loops, and building one from scratch takes time.",
 "outcome": "A working agent defined in code, with middleware and skills, that can be hosted by a graph node in the GoalFlow engine.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `git clone` on the goalflow repository and `cd goalflow`.",
  "Run `pip install -e .`.",
  "Read docs/agent-kit.md and choose the ReAct, Deep, or custom loop you need.",
  "Import the Agent class from the agent_kit package under src/agent_kit/ and define your agent with the middleware and skills you want. (inferred, check the README)",
  "Attach the agent to a graph node that uses agent_base.py in src/goalflow/node/."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the goalflow repo, create a ReAct agent with agent_kit under src/agent_kit/ that answers questions about <topic> using the skills in skills/. Save the code to <output-path>.py. Verify that the agent imports cleanly and report which middleware and model routing options you configured.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Advanced",
 "time": "2 hours",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README names agent_kit and its loop types but gives no code sample, so check docs/agent-kit.md for the real class and method names before writing code.",
