Tutorial: tools

The tools project implements a comprehensive suite of capabilities for an autonomous AI agent, enabling it to interact with the local environment and coordinate complex workflows. It features a recursive agent runtime that can spawn specialized sub-agents, a set of filesystem and codebase intelligence tools for reading, writing, and analyzing code, and a planning mode to architect solutions before implementation. Additionally, it includes a robust task and team coordination layer with communication channels to manage multi-agent swarms and maintain persistent state across sessions.
