childLLM	LLM task execution	✅ Required	✅ Receives all	Specialized LLM workers
parentTOOL	Service provision	❌ Not required	❌ Ignores broadcasts	API services, databases
childTOOL	Specialized services	❌ Not required	❌ Ignores broadcasts	Specific tool implementations
USER	Human interaction	❌ Not required	❌ Broadcasts to LLMs only	User interfaces

Quick Agent Creation

from hexaeight_mcp_client import quick_autogen_llm, quick_tool_agent, quick_user_agent

# LLM Agent (Intelligence Layer)
llm_agent = await quick_autogen_llm(
    config_file="parent_config.json",
    agent_type="parentLLM"
)

# Tool Agent (Business Logic Layer) 
weather_agent = await quick_tool_agent(
    config_file="weather_config.json",
    service_formats=["weather_request", "forecast_request"],
    agent_type="parentTOOL"
)

# User Agent (Interface Layer)
user_agent = await quick_user_agent(
    config_file="user_config.json"
)

🔧 Implementing Business Logic (Tool Agents)

Weather Service Example

class WeatherService:
    async def initialize(self):
        # Create tool agent
        self.agent = await quick_tool_agent(
            config_file="weather_config.json",
            service_formats=["weather_request", "location_query"],
            agent_type="parentTOOL"
        )
        
        # Register your business logic
        self.agent.register_service_handler("weather_request", self.handle_weather)
    
    async def handle_weather(self, content, event, tracker):
        """YOUR ACTUAL BUSINESS LOGIC GOES HERE"""
        
        # Parse request
        request = json.loads(content)
        location = request.get("location", "London")
        
        # 🌍 CALL YOUR ACTUAL WEATHER API
        weather_data = await self.call_openweather_api(location)
        
        # Process and enhance data
        enhanced_data = self.process_weather_data(weather_data)
        
        # Send structured response
        response = {
            "type": "weather_response",
            "location": location,
            "data": enhanced_data,
            "processed_by": self.agent.agent_name
        }
        
        await self.agent.hexaeight_agent.publish_to_agent(
            self.agent.pubsub_url,
            "internal_id",
            event.sender_internal_id,
            json.dumps(response),
            "weather_response"
        )
        
        return True

🆘 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Q: "Failed to encrypt LLM configuration"
A: Ensure you have a valid HexaEight agent loaded before creating the config protector.

Q: "Tool agent not receiving messages"
A: Verify your service_formats match the message types being sent by LLM agents.

Q: "LLM verification failed"
A: Make sure your agent_type is "parentLLM" or "childLLM" and provide appropriate verification responses.

Q: "Connection to PubSub failed"
A: Check that your Client Application is properly configured and PubSub server is running.
