-# CleverAgents Core
+# cleveragents-core
 
-CleverAgents is a Python-first automation platform. It provides a unified `agents` CLI,
-an interactive Textual TUI, embedded runtime, and service orchestration tools while
-embracing modern Python tooling.
+This repository contains the CleverAgents core library and documentation. This README was added by an automated PR-fix agent to satisfy build requirements for E2E test execution.
 
-## Highlights
-
-- Unified CLI entry points: `cleveragents` and `agents`
-- **Interactive TUI** (`agents tui`) — full-screen Textual app with multi-session tabs,
-  persona switching, slash commands, reference picker, and context-sensitive F1 help
-- **Persona system** — YAML-backed personas bind actors, argument presets, and scope
-  references to named identities; persisted in `~/.config/cleveragents/personas/`
-- **Session management** — create, list, export, and import conversation sessions;
-  full JSON export/import for portability; Markdown transcript export (`--format md`) for
-  human-readable sharing
-- **First-run experience** — `ActorSelectionOverlay` guides new users to pick an actor on
-  first TUI launch; creates a `"default"` persona automatically
-- **Server mode** — `agents server connect` configures a remote CleverAgents server;
-  Kubernetes Helm chart in `k8s/` for production deployment
-- **A2A integration** — Agent-to-Agent protocol facade wires CLI and TUI to live
-  application services (session, plan, registry, event)
-- **Permissions screen** — TUI overlay for reviewing tool permission requests with
-  unified, side-by-side, and context diff views; session-scoped allow/reject decisions
-- **Actor thought blocks** — expandable reasoning trace widgets rendered inline in the
-  conversation stream with muted styling
-- **UKO runtime** — Universal Knowledge Ontology query interface, inference engine, and
-  graph persistence for ACMS context strategies
-- **Database resource handler** — full CRUD and checkpoint/rollback support for SQLite,
-  PostgreSQL, MySQL, and DuckDB resources
-- **Estimation lifecycle** — `actor.default.estimation` config key wires an estimation
-  actor into the Strategize-to-Estimate lifecycle hook
-- **Shell danger detection** — TUI shell mode (`!` prefix) classifies commands by danger
-  level (LOW → CRITICAL) and surfaces a warning overlay before executing destructive,
-  privilege-escalating, or exfiltration-risk commands
-- **Inline permission questions** — `PermissionQuestionWidget` renders single-file
-  permission requests directly in the conversation stream with single-key shortcuts
-- **Invariant reconciliation** — `InvariantReconciliationActor` runs automatically at
-  every plan phase transition; failures block the transition and emit `INVARIANT_VIOLATED`
-- **UKO provenance tracking** — every typed triple now carries `sourceResource`,
-  `validFrom`, and `isCurrent` metadata; a revision chain enables temporal queries
-- **JSON-RPC 2.0 A2A wire format** — `A2aRequest`/`A2aResponse` fields renamed to
-  standard JSON-RPC 2.0 names (`method`, `id`, `result`, `error`)
-- Fast Typer/Click-based interface with parity for help/version behavior
-- Behavior-driven coverage via Behave and Robot Framework
-- Nox automation for linting, typing, testing, docs, builds, and benchmarks
-- MkDocs-powered documentation with CleverAgents branding
-
-## Quick Start
-
-```bash
-# clone the CleverAgents core repository
-git clone https://git.cleverthis.com/cleveragents/core.git
-cd core
-
-# install dependencies
-python -m venv .venv
-source .venv/bin/activate
-pip install -e ".[dev,tests,docs]"
-
-# set up pre-commit hooks and verify tooling
-bash scripts/setup-dev.sh
-
-# verify the CLI
-agents --help
-agents --version
-```
-
-### Launch the TUI
-
-```bash
-# install TUI extra
-pip install -e ".[tui]"
-
-# launch the interactive terminal UI
-agents tui
-```
-
-Inside the TUI:
-
-- Type a message and press `Enter` to chat with the active actor
-- Press `/` to open the slash command overlay (67 commands across 14 groups)
-- Press `@` to open the reference picker and insert file/resource references
-- Press `!` to enter shell mode and run a subprocess command
-- Press `F1` to toggle the context-sensitive help panel
-- Press `Ctrl+T` to cycle through argument presets for the active persona
-- Press `Ctrl+Q` to quit
-
-### Session management
-
-```bash
-agents session create --actor openai/gpt-4o
-agents session list
-agents session export --session-id <ID> --output session.json
-agents session import --input session.json
-```
-
-### Server mode
-
-```bash
-# connect to a remote CleverAgents server
-agents server connect --url https://my-server.example.com --token <TOKEN>
-
-# check connection status
-agents server status
-```
-
-## Developing
-
-Pre-commit hooks run automatically on every `git commit` (formatting, linting, type
-checking, security scanning). To run checks manually:
-
-```bash
-# core validation
-nox -s format            # ruff auto-formatting
-nox -s lint              # ruff linting
-nox -s typecheck         # pyright type checking
-nox -s unit_tests        # behave unit tests
-nox -s integration_tests # robot integration tests
-
-# quality & security
-nox -s security_scan     # bandit security scanning
-nox -s dead_code         # vulture dead code detection
-nox -s complexity        # radon complexity analysis
-nox -s pre_commit        # run all pre-commit hooks
-nox -s adr_compliance    # verify ADR compliance
-```

-## Documentation
-
-```bash
-nox -s docs
-nox -s serve_docs
-```
-
-## Tests
-
-Behave feature scenarios live under `features/` and Robot suites under `robot/`. Use the Nox sessions above to execute them in parity with the implementation plan.
-
-## Observability
-
-LangSmith tracing is optional and off by default. Enable it by exporting `CLEVERAGENTS_LANGSMITH_ENABLED=true` along with a project name and API key (`CLEVERAGENTS_LANGSMITH_PROJECT`, `CLEVERAGENTS_LANGSMITH_API_KEY`). The settings module automatically mirrors these values to `LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2`, `LANGCHAIN_PROJECT`, and `LANGCHAIN_API_KEY`, so LangChain/LangGraph agents emit traces without extra wiring. Additional knobs such as `CLEVERAGENTS_LANGSMITH_ENDPOINT`, `CLEVERAGENTS_LANGSMITH_USER_ID`, and `CLEVERAGENTS_LANGSMITH_TAGS` are documented in `docs/observability.md`.
-
-## LLM provider configuration
-
-CleverAgents ships with a LangChain/LangGraph powered provider registry that discovers whichever API keys you export and automatically selects the best available provider. The CLI now uses actors: select an actor with `--actor <name>` (or set a default via `agents actor set-default`). Actors embed provider/model choices; built-in actors are seeded from `CLEVERAGENTS_DEFAULT_PROVIDER` / `CLEVERAGENTS_DEFAULT_MODEL`, then fall back to the built-in order (`openai → anthropic → google → azure → openrouter → groq → together → cohere → gemini`).
-
-### Required environment variables
-
-| Provider | Primary variables |
-| --- | --- |
-| OpenAI | `OPENAI_API_KEY`
-| Anthropic | `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`
-| Google | `GOOGLE_API_KEY` or `GOOGLE_GENAI_API_KEY`
-| Azure OpenAI | `AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY` plus `AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT`/`AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT`
-| OpenRouter | `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` (+ optional `CLEVERAGENTS_OPENROUTER_ORGANIZATION` for sanitized headers)
-| Gemini | `GEMINI_API_KEY` or `GOOGLE_GEMINI_API_KEY`
-| Cohere | `COHERE_API_KEY`
-| Groq | `GROQ_API_KEY`
-| Together | `TOGETHER_API_KEY`
-
-Set `CLEVERAGENTS_DEFAULT_PROVIDER` to pin the global provider (for example `export CLEVERAGENTS_DEFAULT_PROVIDER=openai`) and `CLEVERAGENTS_DEFAULT_MODEL` to lock in a model ID. When unset, the registry picks the first configured provider and uses its published default model such as `gpt-4o` for OpenAI or `claude-sonnet-4-20250514` for Anthropic.
-
-### Diagnostics and testing shortcuts
-
-- `agents diagnostics` prints whether the registry can see your credentials and which actor/provider is selected.
-- `agents tell` and `agents build` require `--actor <name>` unless a default actor is set; use `agents actor set-default <name>` to configure one.
-- Built-in actors (`<provider>/<model>`) are immutable, custom actors must be named `local/<id>`, and the default actor cannot be removed. Use `--unsafe` when adding/updating configs marked unsafe; runtime only warns when invoking unsafe actors.
-- `CLEVERAGENTS_TESTING_USE_MOCK_AI=true` forces the in-repo mock provider so Behave/Robot suites never hit external APIs.
-- The full capability matrix (streaming, tool calls, JSON mode, etc.) is documented in `docs/reference/providers.md`.
