Examples

Configuring capabilities for an agent:

using LMKit.Model;
using LMKit.Agents;
using LMKit.Agents.Tools;
using LMKit.Agents.Skills;

using var model = new LM("path/to/model.gguf");
var agent = new Agent(model);

// Configure tools
agent.Capabilities.EnsureTools().Register(new CalculatorTool());
agent.Capabilities.EnsureTools().Register(new WebSearchTool());

// Configure skills
agent.Capabilities.EnsureSkills().LoadFromDirectory("./skills");

// Check what's available
Console.WriteLine($"Tools: {agent.Capabilities.Tools?.Count ?? 0}");
Console.WriteLine($"Skills: {agent.Capabilities.Skills?.Count ?? 0}");
Console.WriteLine($"Has memory: {agent.Capabilities.HasMemory}");

Remarks

Capabilities extend what an agent can do beyond basic text generation. They enable the agent to interact with external systems, use specialized workflows, and maintain persistent knowledge across conversations.

Capability Types

Tools: External functions the agent can invoke, such as web search, database queries, or API calls.
Skills: Modular instruction packages with specialized knowledge and workflows.
Memory: Persistent storage enabling context recall across conversations.

Thread Safety

This class is not thread-safe. External synchronization is required if modifying capabilities from multiple threads.
