defmodule Jido do
@moduledoc """
Jido is a flexible framework for building distributed AI Agents and Workflows in Elixir.
This module provides the main interface for interacting with Jido components, including:
- Managing and interacting with Agents through a high-level API
- Listing and retrieving Actions, Sensors, and Domains
- Filtering and paginating results
- Generating unique slugs for components
## Agent Interaction Examples
# Find and act on an agent
"agent-id"
|> Jido.get_agent_by_id()
|> Jido.act(:command, %{param: "value"})
# Act asynchronously
{:ok, agent} = Jido.get_agent_by_id("agent-id")
Jido.act_async(agent, :command)
# Send management commands
{:ok, agent} = Jido.get_agent_by_id("agent-id")
Jido.manage(agent, :pause)
# Subscribe to agent events
{:ok, topic} = Jido.get_agent_topic("agent-id")
Phoenix.PubSub.subscribe(MyApp.PubSub, topic)
