Multi Step Code Tool Calling Agent
==================================

Source: ``examples/agents/multi_step_code_tool_calling_agent.py``

Introduction
------------

ReAct and Toolformer motivate external action for model reasoning, while AutoGen highlights how
multi-agent/tool ecosystems depend on explicit execution boundaries. This example focuses on code-tool
calling so you can study how executable outputs are requested, validated, and traced in a controlled loop.

Technical Implementation
------------------------

1. Configure ``Tracer`` with JSONL + console output so each run emits machine-readable traces and lifecycle logs.
2. Build the runtime surface (public APIs only) and execute ``MultiStepAgent.run(...)`` with a fixed ``request_id``.
3. Configure and invoke ``Toolbox`` integrations (core/script/MCP/callable) before assembling the final payload.
4. Print a compact JSON payload including ``trace_info`` for deterministic tests and docs examples.

Expected Results

.. rubric:: Run Command

.. code-block:: bash

   PYTHONPATH=src python3 examples/agents/multi_step_code_tool_calling_agent.py

Example output shape (values vary by run):

.. code-block:: text

   {
     "success": true,
     "final_output": "<example-specific payload>",
     "terminated_reason": "<string-or-null>",
     "error": null,
     "trace": {
       "request_id": "<request-id>",
       "trace_dir": "artifacts/examples/traces",
       "trace_path": "artifacts/examples/traces/run_<timestamp>_<request_id>.jsonl"
     }
   }
