Overview

Defines one reusable model-driven behavior with prompts, tools, and limits. Each Agent subclass describes one application role with an inheritable Ruby DSL. It can answer, stream, call tools, and delegate work.

Start with one role and add capabilities as its work grows:

class CustomerSupportAgent < LittleGhost::Agent
description "Handles support requests"
model "openrouter:openai/gpt-5.6-luna"
system_prompt "Answer customer questions clearly."
end

run = CustomerSupportAgent.ask("Why is transfer 481 pending?")
run.completed? # => true
run.response
# One possible response: Transfer 481 is waiting for the receiving bank.

An Agent is the smallest Assembly: it owns one model loop while inheriting the same ask and stream_ask entrypoints as coordinated assemblies. Add tools for application operations and subagents for model-directed delegation.

Call a named Agent with ask when you need the final Run, or the streaming entrypoint when you want events as the answer arrives.

Most applications call a named Agent class. LittleGhost automatically reuses the active Configuration's shared Runtime while building a fresh top-level Run for every call. Passing runtime: is an advanced option for an explicitly isolated setup.

Agent declarations are inherited. Define a short prompt inline, or place a growing prompt in app/prompts/customer_support/system.erb for CustomerSupportAgent. The Prompts as Views guide explains conventional lookup, locals, and partials. Optional features such as skills, context management, loop detection, and delegation stay inactive until their DSL is used.

Models may return text or locally validated structured data. LittleGhost hides unexpected Tool exception messages from the model. See Run for outcomes, cancellation, and cleanup, and Assembly for the advanced run-scoped form.

Constructor Details

#initialize(model: nil, runtime: nil, tools: [], template_resolver: nil, template_paths: [], run: nil, executor: nil, delegation_activity: nil, agent_path: Subagents::AgentPath::ROOT, max_turns: 100, max_tool_calls: 1_000, max_tool_result_tokens: DEFAULT_MAX_TOOL_RESULT_TOKENS, model_settings: {}, workspace: nil, sandbox: nil) ⇒ Agent

Creates either a standalone entrypoint or a run-scoped agent. :call-seq:

new(runtime: nil) -> Agent
new(model:, runtime:, tools:, run:, ...) -> Agent

The first form is the application-facing entrypoint. It may be reused for independent concurrent calls and creates a fresh Run for each one. The second form is run-scoped; Runtime builders supply its dependencies and it must not outlive or be shared outside its owning Run.

Class Method Details

.agent_id(*values) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

agent_id() -> String
agent_id(value) -> String

The stable identifier used in telemetry, delegation, and default tool names. Named subclasses derive it from their underscored class name without an Agent suffix; passing value replaces that default.

def callbacks = callback_values # :nodoc:

.capture_diagnostics(*values) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

capture_diagnostics() -> true or false
capture_diagnostics(value) -> true or false

Whether agent-layer diagnostics may include model and tool content.

Capture defaults to true, and only a literal true enables it. This setting does not disable run-level input and output capture from an enabled process-wide Support::ContentCapture policy. For sensitive work, also install Support::ContentCapture.disabled or an appropriate scrubber through Instrumentation.capture_content.

  self.capture_diagnostics_value = values.fetch(0) == true
end

.code_mode(engine: nil, except: nil, **options) ⇒ Object

Enables code mode for this agent. except names the application Tools that remain model-facing; every other application Tool moves into the engine catalog and is called through the parent-process Broker. Framework-owned subagent controls remain model-facing automatically.

:call-seq:

model() -> String, Symbol, Hash, Proc, nil
model(role_or_target) -> String, Symbol
model(provider:, model:, **settings) -> Hash
model { |invocation| ... } -> Proc

Selects this agent's model by logical role, canonical provider:model-id target, or an inline mapping with provider, model, and trusted model settings. The provider names a configured connection, not necessarily its adapter.

Pass a block to choose any supported form from each Invocation at run time. Inline mappings use flat settings, for example:

model(provider: "openai", model: "gpt-5.6-luna", reasoning_effort: "high")

:call-seq:

result_schema() -> Hash, nil
result_schema(schema, name: nil, description: nil, strategy: :auto) -> Hash
result_schema(name: nil, description: nil, strategy: :auto, **schema) -> Hash

Declares a strict JSON-object result contract. Every object must set additionalProperties: false and require each property. Automatic strategy selection prefers provider-native structured output and falls back to a terminal tool when supported.

During execution, a missing or invalid result receives one repair attempt before LittleGhost::StructuredResultError is raised inside the owning Run. A top-level ask records it on a failed Run. Invalid schemas and strategies raise LittleGhost::ConfigurationError before execution begins.

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

#interject(message, cancellation_token: Support::CancellationToken.new, deadline: nil, target_operation_id: nil, interjection_id: nil, batch_key: nil, metadata: {}) ⇒ Object

Adds an interjection and returns the model's immediate result details.

Use target_operation_id when an agent has multiple active invocations. Messages may contain only text, image, or document content. The returned result value exposes text, tool_calls?, interjection_ids, and batch_key; tool calls may continue after this result. Depend on these methods rather than the result's concrete class.

Streams one invocation as StreamEvent objects.

Agents built inside a run accept history, JSON-like context, cancellation, deadlines, settings, and trusted invocation template paths. An Agent instance may be streamed only by its owning Run. Every template path must be an application-created TrustedPath; the wrapper records a trust decision and must never contain unchecked request or model input.

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)
