foxctl Daemon

What problem does it solve?

It helps you understand and control how foxctl’s agent daemon selects execution engines so reactive agents respond correctly and autonomous/proactive agents can run tool-calling loops reliably.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Engine Routing by exec_mode: Dispatches to the appropriate LLMChatEngine behavior for reactive, autonomous, and proactive modes using an internal companion service.
• LLM Engine & Provider Selection: Configures provider defaults (e.g., cerebras fallback) and model selection to match each agent’s intent.
• Autonomous vs Proactive Behavior: Maps mailbox-polling “wait for work” agents versus self-initiating background/scheduled agents to the right operational mode.
• Operational Controls for Sessions: Supports context budget enforcement (e.g., stopping with StopReasonContextBudget) and session continuation by persisting turns and linking sessions.

Quick Start

Spawn an autonomous agent that self-runs with tool calling by executing: foxctl agent spawn --name "Coder" --role coder --exec-mode autonomous.
