Agent Architecture

Every agent must implement 2 required endpoints (GET /tools and POST /tools/:toolName) and 1 optional endpoint (POST /resource):

​
1. GET /tools (Required)

Returns available tools for the agent. Response Type: ToolsResponseDto 
export class ToolsResponseDto {
  tools: ToolDto[];
}

export class ToolDto {
  name: string; // Tool identifier
  description: string; // What the tool does
  parameters: ToolParameterDto; // JSON Schema for parameters
  confirmationRequired?: boolean; // If true, the tool will require user confirmation
}

export class ToolParameterDto {
  type: 'object';
  properties: Record<string, PropertyDto>; // List of properties for the object
  required?: string[]; // List of required parameters
}

export class PropertyDto {
  type: 'string' | 'number' | 'boolean' | 'array' | 'object';
  description: string;
  enum?: string[]; // If the parameter is an enum, list the possible values
  default?: string | number | boolean; // Default value for the parameter
  items?: PropertyDto; // If the parameter is an array, list the items
}
Example from Slack Agent: 
tools: [
  {
    name: 'sendMessage',
    description:
      'Send a message to a Slack user or channel. No need for exact name, it searches through all users and channels. Can directly use this to send message to a user or channel, no need to get the id first if user or channel name is known.',
    parameters: {
      type: 'object',
      properties: {
        query: {
          type: 'string',
          description:
            'Name of the user/channel to send message to. Can be a user name, channel name, or a channel id. Never pass a user id, always pass a user name or channel name.',
        },
        type: {
          type: 'string',
          description:
            'Type of recipient: "user", "channel", "id", or "unknown".',
          enum: ['user', 'channel', 'id', 'unknown'],
          default: 'unknown',
        },
        text: {
          type: 'string',
          description: 'Text content of the message',
        },
        threadTs: {
          type: 'string',
          description: 'Optional thread timestamp to reply to a thread',
        },
      },
      required: ['query', 'text'],
    },
    confirmationRequired: true,
  },
];

​
⚠️ Important: Reserved Keywords

When defining tool parameters, be aware that certain keywords are reserved by the system and cannot be used as property names. Using these reserved keywords will result in validation errors Following keywords are reserved:
  • executionId
  • chatId
  • userId
  • toolName
💡 Tip: If you need to use a similar concept, consider prefixing or suffixing the property name Example: 
// ❌ Avoid this
properties: {
 exectionId: { type: 'string' },  // Will throw error!
}

// ✅ Use this instead
properties: {
 slackExecutionId: { type: 'string' },  // Safe alternative
}

​
2. POST /tools/:toolName (Required)

Executes a specific tool with provided parameters. Parameters:
  • toolName (path parameter): Name of the tool to execute
  • Request body: Tool-specific parameters
Response Type: BaseErrorResponseDto | BaseSuccessResponseDto<any> 
export class BaseErrorResponseDto {
  success: false;
  error: {
    message: string;
    code: number | string;
    details: string;
  };

  constructor(
    message: string,
    code: number | string = 500,
    details: string = '',
  ) {
    this.success = false;
    this.error = {
      message,
      code,
      details,
    };
  }
}

export class BaseSuccessResponseDto<T> {
  success: true;
  responseType: string;
  data: {
    [key: string]: T;
  };

  constructor(data: T, responseType: 'text' | 'html' | 'media' | 'mixed') {
    this.success = true;
    this.responseType = responseType;
    if (responseType === 'text') {
      this.data = {
        text: data,
      };
    } else if (responseType === 'html') {
      this.data = {
        html: data,
      };
    } else if (responseType === 'media') {
      this.data = {
        media: data,
      };
    } else if (responseType === 'mixed') {
      // @ts-expect-error - data is of type T
      this.data = {
        ...data,
      };
    }
  }
}

export class ResponseMediaItem {
  type: string;
  url: string;
  mimeType: string;
  description: string;
  metadata: object;

  constructor(
    type: string,
    url: string,
    mimeType: string,
    description: string,
    metadata: object = {},
  ) {
    this.type = type;
    this.url = url;
    this.mimeType = mimeType;
    this.description = description;
    this.metadata = metadata;
  }
}

​
3. POST /resource (Optional)

Provides contextual information about the current user or environment to help the agent work effectively. Example Use Cases:
  • GitHub agent: Return user’s profile and repositories
  • MongoDB agent: Return database schema information
  • Slack agent: Return user’s workspace info and frequent contacts

​
Authentication

All requests include authentication headers:

​
API Key Authentication

  • Header: x-api-key
    • Used to authenticate the server making the request
    • Required for all endpoints

​
OAuth Authentication (Optional)

  • Header: x-api-key
    • Used to authenticate the server making the request
    • Required for all endpoints
  • Header: Authorization: Bearer <token>
    • Used for agents requiring user-specific OAuth tokens
    • Examples: Twitter, Slack, GitHub agents

​
Variable Headers (Optional)

  • Header: x-api-key
    • Used to authenticate the server making the request
    • Required for all endpoints
  • Header: x-<variablename>
    • Used for agent-specific configuration
    • Example: x-dburi for MongoDB agent

​
Tool Definition Structure

Each tool in the ToolsResponseDto follows this structure: 
{
  name: string;                    // Tool identifier
  description: string;             // What the tool does
  parameters: {                    // JSON Schema for parameters
    type: 'object';
    properties: Record<string, any>;
    required?: string[];
  };
  visibleParameters?: string[];    // Parameters shown in UI
  confirmationRequired?: boolean;  // Requires user confirmation
}

​
Best Practices

  1. Error Handling: Always return proper error responses using BaseErrorResponseDto
  2. Parameter Validation: Validate all input parameters according to the tool schema
  3. Authentication: Implement proper guards for API key and OAuth validation
  4. Documentation: Provide clear descriptions for tools and parameters
  5. Response Types: Use appropriate response types (text, html, media, mixed)
  6. Confirmation: Set confirmationRequired: true for critical operations
