From eebc900b5c9f60c17326e2929f9cb47dad6e6193 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shubhdeep Chhabra Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2026 19:07:36 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] refactor: enhance agent context handling in conversation agent Updated the ConversationAgent to dynamically read the agent's name, tone, and memories on each run, allowing for personalized responses. The agent's prompt now incorporates these details, ensuring that memories are treated as data rather than instructions. Additionally, documentation has been updated to reflect these changes in the agent's functionality. --- apps/server/src/engine/conversation.ts | 58 ++++++++---- docs/EXPERIENCE.md | 2 +- docs/VERIFICATION.md | 2 +- tests/conversation-personal-context.test.ts | 100 ++++++++++++++++++++ 4 files changed, 141 insertions(+), 21 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/conversation-personal-context.test.ts diff --git a/apps/server/src/engine/conversation.ts b/apps/server/src/engine/conversation.ts index 8e1fed6e8..cad5ca3f7 100644 --- a/apps/server/src/engine/conversation.ts +++ b/apps/server/src/engine/conversation.ts @@ -3,9 +3,11 @@ import { createHash, randomUUID } from "node:crypto"; import { AbstractAgent } from "@ag-ui/client"; import { type BaseEvent, EventType, type RunAgentInput } from "@ag-ui/core"; import { defineTool } from "@copilotkit/runtime/v2"; -import { Observable } from "rxjs"; +import { defer, finalize, Observable, switchMap } from "rxjs"; import { z } from "zod"; import { + type AgentIdentity, + type AgentMemory, createTaskSchema, goalInputSchema, monitorInputSchema, @@ -214,25 +216,43 @@ export class ConversationAgent extends AbstractAgent { }, }), ]; - const agent = tanstackAgent({ - model: this.config.model ??
