SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Jido provides builder-oriented guidance to design and review the core agent runtime and orchestration layer, aligning concepts like agents, directives, actions, signals, memory, and package boundaries within Elixir systems.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided design of agent runtimes: establish explicit lifecycle, state, and interaction boundaries for Jido-based deployments.
  • Ecosystem-based composition: help decide when to use core Jido primitives versus package extensions (actions, signals, memory, and adapters).
  • Use Case: draft runnable agent examples that demonstrate end-to-end orchestration and testable flows in a small, focused scope.

Quick Start

Start by reading references/builder-notes.md and draft a minimal runnable agent outline that wires together jido_action, jido_signal, and memory with the core runtime.

FAQPage Schema
How do I design an Elixir agent runtime with coherent orchestration?

Design an Elixir agent runtime by establishing explicit state, lifecycle, and interaction boundaries that wire together actions, directives, signals, and memory for end-to-end orchestration.

When should I use core Jido primitives versus package extensions?

Use core Jido primitives for foundational agent state and lifecycle, and adopt package extensions when you need specialized adapters, custom actions, signals, or memory integrations beyond the core runtime.

How do I define agent state boundaries and lifecycle in Jido?

Define agent state boundaries and lifecycle by drafting a minimal runnable outline that explicitly wires jido_action, jido_signal, and memory together within the core runtime constraints.

What is the best way to test Elixir agent orchestration flows?

The best way to test agent orchestration is to draft small, focused, runnable agent examples that demonstrate end-to-end flows and validate explicit interactions across actions and directives.

Does Jido support composing end-to-end agent workflows with modular packaging?

Yes, Jido supports composing end-to-end agent workflows by promoting explicit orchestration and modular packaging, helping you decide core versus extension boundaries for complex deployments.
