```

---

## Quick Start Guide

### 1. Basic Agent (Hello World)

```python
from fluxgraph import FluxApp

# Initialize application
app = FluxApp(title="My First Agent API", version="1.0.0")

@app.agent()
def echo_agent(message: str) -> dict:
    """Simple echo agent that returns your message."""
    return {"response": f"You said: {message}"}

# Run: flux run app.py
# Test: curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/ask/echo_agent -d '{"message":"Hello!"}'
```

### 2. LLM-Powered Agent

```python
import os
from fluxgraph import FluxApp
from fluxgraph.models import OpenAIProvider

app = FluxApp(title="Smart Assistant")

# Configure LLM
llm = OpenAIProvider(
    api_key=os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY"),
    model="gpt-4",
    temperature=0.7
)

@app.agent()
async def assistant(query: str) -> dict:
    """AI assistant powered by GPT-4."""
    response = await llm.generate(
        prompt=f"You are a helpful assistant. Answer: {query}",
        max_tokens=150
    )
    return {
        "query": query,
        "answer": response.get("text", "No response"),
        "model": "gpt-4"
    }
```

### 3. Agent with Tools

```python
@app.tool()
def calculate(expression: str) -> float:
    """Safely evaluate math expressions."""
    import ast
    return ast.literal_eval(expression)

@app.tool()
def get_weather(city: str) -> dict:
    """Get weather information (mock example)."""
    return {"city": city, "temp": 72, "condition": "Sunny"}

@app.agent()
async def smart_agent(task: str, tools) -> dict:
    """Agent that can use tools."""
    if "weather" in task.lower():
        result = tools["get_weather"]("New York")
        return {"task": task, "weather": result}
    elif "calculate" in task.lower():
        result = tools["calculate"]("2+2")
        return {"task": task, "result": result}
    return {"task": task, "message": "Task not recognized"}
```

### 4. Multi-Agent System

```python
@app.agent()
async def supervisor(task: str, call_agent, broadcast) -> dict:
    """Supervisor that delegates to other agents."""
    # Delegate to specific agent
    research = await call_agent("research_agent", query=task)
    
    # Broadcast to multiple agents
    results = await broadcast(
        ["analysis_agent", "summary_agent"],
        data=research
    )
    
    return {"task": task, "results": results}

@app.agent()
async def research_agent(query: str) -> dict:
    """Specialized research agent."""
    return {"findings": f"Research results for: {query}"}

@app.agent()
async def analysis_agent(data: dict) -> dict:
    """Analyzes research data."""
    return {"analysis": f"Analysis of {data}"}
```

### 5. Agent with Memory

```python
from fluxgraph.core import PostgresMemory, DatabaseManager
from datetime import datetime

# Setup memory
db_manager = DatabaseManager(os.getenv("DATABASE_URL"))
memory_store = PostgresMemory(db_manager)

app = FluxApp(memory_store=memory_store)

@app.agent()
async def conversation_agent(message: str, session_id: str, memory) -> dict:
    """Agent with conversation memory."""
    # Store user message
    await memory.add(session_id, {
        "role": "user",
        "content": message,
        "timestamp": datetime.utcnow().isoformat()
    })
    
    # Get conversation history
    history = await memory.get(session_id, limit=10)
    
    # Generate response with context
    context = "\n".join([f"{msg['role']}: {msg['content']}" 
                         for msg in reversed(history)])
    response = await llm.generate(f"Context:\n{context}\n\nRespond to: {message}")
    
    # Store response
    await memory.add(session_id, {
        "role": "assistant",
        "content": response,
        "timestamp": datetime.utcnow().isoformat()
    })
    
    return {"response": response, "history_length": len(history)}
```

### 6. RAG-Enabled Agent

```python
@app.agent()
async def knowledge_agent(question: str, rag) -> dict:
    """Agent with knowledge base access."""
    # Query knowledge base
    docs = await rag.query(question, top_k=5)
    
    if not docs:
        return {"answer": "No information found"}
    
    # Build context from retrieved documents
    context = "\n\n".join([doc.get("content", "") for doc in docs])
    
    # Generate answer with LLM
    prompt = f"Context:\n{context}\n\nQuestion: {question}\nAnswer:"
    answer = await llm.generate(prompt, max_tokens=200)
    
    return {
        "question": question,
        "answer": answer,
        "sources": [doc.get("metadata", {}) for doc in docs]
    }

# Ingest documents
@app.api.post("/knowledge/ingest")
async def ingest_document(file: UploadFile = File(...)):
    """Add documents to knowledge base."""
    temp_path = f"/tmp/{file.filename}"
    with open(temp_path, "wb") as buffer:
        buffer.write(await file.read())
    
    await app.rag_connector.ingest(temp_path, metadata={
        "filename": file.filename,
        "upload_time": datetime.utcnow().isoformat()
    })
    
    os.remove(temp_path)
    return {"message": f"Ingested {file.filename}"}
```

### PII Detection (9 Types)

```python
# Supported: EMAIL, PHONE, SSN, CREDIT_CARD, IP_ADDRESS,
# PASSPORT, DRIVER_LICENSE, DATE_OF_BIRTH, MEDICAL_RECORD

detections = app.pii_detector.detect(user_input)
redacted, detected = app.pii_detector.redact(user_input)
# "Contact me at [REDACTED:email]"

# Scan entire payloads
data = {"message": "My SSN is 123-45-6789"}
clean_data, findings = app.pii_detector.scan_dict(data, redact=True)
```

### Prompt Injection Shield (7 Techniques)

```python
# Detects: IGNORE_PREVIOUS, ROLE_PLAY, ENCODED_INJECTION,
# DELIMITER_INJECTION, PRIVILEGE_ESCALATION, CONTEXT_OVERFLOW

is_safe, detections = app.prompt_shield.is_safe(user_input)
if not is_safe:
    raise SecurityException("Prompt injection detected")

# Sanitize input
sanitized, removed = app.prompt_shield.sanitize(user_input)
```

### RBAC with JWT

```python
# Create user
user = app.rbac_manager.create_user(
    username="john",
    email="john@company.com",
    password="secure_password",
    roles=[Role.DEVELOPER]
)

# Generate JWT
token = app.rbac_manager.generate_jwt_token(user, expires_in_hours=24)

# Check permissions
if app.rbac_manager.check_permission(user, Permission.EXECUTE_AGENT):
    result = await agent.run(query)
```

    internal_docs = await rag.query(topic, top_k=5)
    
    # Search external sources
    external_results = tools["web_search"](topic, max_results=10)
    
    # Synthesize findings

## Testing

### Unit Tests

```python
import pytest
from fluxgraph import FluxApp

@pytest.fixture
def app():
    return FluxApp(title="Test App")

def test_agent_registration(app):
    @app.agent()
    def test_agent(message: str) -> dict:
        return {"response": message}
    
    assert "test_agent" in app.orchestrator.agents

def test_agent_execution(app):
    @app.agent()
    def echo_agent(message: str) -> dict:
        return {"echo": message}
    
    result = app.orchestrator.run("echo_agent", {"message": "test"})
    assert result["echo"] == "test"
```

### Integration Tests

```python
import pytest
from httpx import AsyncClient

@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_api_endpoint():
    async with AsyncClient(app=app, base_url="http://test") as client:
        response = await client.post(
            "/ask/echo_agent",
            json={"message": "Hello"}
        )
        assert response.status_code == 200
        assert "response" in response.json()
```

---

## Troubleshooting

### Common Issues

**Issue: Agent not found**
```python
# Ensure agent is registered before running
@app.agent()  # Decorator must be present
def my_agent(query: str) -> dict:
    return {"response": query}
```

**Issue: Memory not persisting**
```python
# Check DATABASE_URL is set
import os
assert os.getenv("DATABASE_URL"), "DATABASE_URL not set"

# Verify connection
from fluxgraph.core import DatabaseManager
db = DatabaseManager(os.getenv("DATABASE_URL"))
db.test_connection()
```

**Issue: RAG not working**
```python
# Install RAG dependencies
# pip install fluxgraph[rag]

# Verify ChromaDB is initialized
assert app.rag_connector is not None, "RAG not initialized"
```

**Issue: Cost tracking inaccurate**
```python
# Ensure LLM provider reports token usage
llm = OpenAIProvider(
    api_key=os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY"),
    track_costs=True  # Enable cost tracking
)
```

### Debug Mode

```python
# Enable detailed logging
app = FluxApp(
    debug=True,
    log_level="DEBUG"
)

# Check system status
status = app.orchestrator.get_system_status()
print(status)
```

## Best Practices

### Agent Design

1. **Keep agents focused**: One responsibility per agent
2. **Use type hints**: Enable better validation and documentation
3. **Handle errors gracefully**: Return error messages in response dict
4. **Document agents**: Use docstrings for API documentation

```python
@app.agent()
async def good_agent(query: str, tools) -> dict:
    """
    Well-designed agent with clear purpose.
    
    Args:
        query: User query string
        tools: Available tool functions
        
    Returns:
        dict: Response with 'answer' and 'metadata' keys
    """
    try:
        result = await process_query(query)
        return {"answer": result, "metadata": {"status": "success"}}
    except Exception as e:
        return {"error": str(e), "metadata": {"status": "failed"}}
```

### Security

1. **Always enable security features in production**
2. **Validate all user inputs**
3. **Use environment variables for secrets**
4. **Enable audit logging for compliance**
5. **Regular security reviews**

### Performance

1. **Use async agents for I/O operations**
2. **Enable caching for repeated queries**
3. **Batch similar requests**
4. **Monitor circuit breaker status**
5. **Scale horizontally with Kubernetes**

### Monitoring

```python
# Enable comprehensive monitoring
app = FluxApp(
    enable_streaming=True,
    enable_security=True,
    enable_orchestration=True
)

# Regular health checks
@app.api.get("/health")
async def health_check():
    return {
        "status": "healthy",
        "agents": len(app.orchestrator.agents),
        "circuit_breakers": app.orchestrator.get_circuit_status(),
        "costs": app.cost_tracker.get_summary()
    }
```
