```

#### Using the New TUI

```bash
# Launch the TUI
cleveragents tui

# Navigate using keyboard
# Arrow keys: Navigate menu items
# Enter: Select item
# 'h': Show help
# 'q': Quit
# 'r': Refresh
# 'c': Create new automation
# 'd': Delete selected item
```

### Session Management Interface

The new session management interface provides comprehensive control over automation sessions.

```python
from cleveragents.tui import SessionManager

# Access session manager from TUI
session_mgr = SessionManager()

# List all sessions
sessions = await session_mgr.list_sessions()
for session in sessions:
    print(f"{session.id}: {session.status} - {session.created_at}")

# Get session details
session = await session_mgr.get_session('session-123')
print(f"Automations: {len(session.automations)}")
print(f"Duration: {session.duration}")
print(f"Status: {session.status}")

# Export session
await session_mgr.export_session('session-123', 'session-export.json')

# Import session
await session_mgr.import_session('session-export.json')
```

### Real-time Monitoring Dashboard

Monitor automation execution in real-time with the new dashboard.

```python
from cleveragents.tui import Dashboard

dashboard = Dashboard()

# Configure dashboard widgets
dashboard.add_widget('execution_timeline', position=(0, 0), size=(40, 10))
dashboard.add_widget('resource_usage', position=(40, 0), size=(40, 10))
dashboard.add_widget('error_log', position=(0, 10), size=(80, 10))

# Start dashboard
await dashboard.start()

# Dashboard updates automatically as automations execute
```

## Agent-to-Agent Communication (A2A)

### A2A Protocol Overview

v3.7.0 introduces a robust Agent-to-Agent Communication protocol for sophisticated multi-agent orchestration.

#### Protocol Features

- **JSON-RPC 2.0 Compliance**: Standard JSON-RPC protocol for interoperability
- **Multiple Transport Layers**: HTTP, WebSocket, stdio, and gRPC support
- **Message Routing**: Intelligent message routing between agents
- **Error Handling**: Comprehensive error handling and recovery
- **Authentication**: Secure agent-to-agent communication
- **Message Queuing**: Reliable message delivery with retry logic

#### A2A Message Format

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "automation.execute",
  "params": {
    "automation_id": "auto-123",
    "context": {
      "project_id": "proj-456",
      "user_id": "user-789"
    },
    "timeout": 300
  },
  "id": "msg-abc123"
}
```

### Setting Up A2A Communication

```python
from cleveragents.a2a import AgentRegistry, A2AServer

# Register agents
registry = AgentRegistry()
registry.register('agent-1', 'http://localhost:8001')
registry.register('agent-2', 'http://localhost:8002')
registry.register('agent-3', 'http://localhost:8003')

# Start A2A server
server = A2AServer(
    host='0.0.0.0',
    port=8000,
    registry=registry,
    auth_enabled=True
)

await server.start()
```

### Calling Remote Agents

```python
from cleveragents.a2a import A2AClient

# Create A2A client
client = A2AClient(
    agent_id='local-agent',
    registry_url='http://registry:8000'
)

# Call remote agent
result = await client.call_agent(
    agent_id='agent-1',
    method='automation.execute',
    params={
        'automation_id': 'auto-123',
        'context': {'project_id': 'proj-456'}
    },
    timeout=300
)

print(f"Result: {result}")
```

### Multi-Agent Orchestration

Coordinate multiple agents for complex automation workflows.

```python
from cleveragents.a2a import Orchestrator

orchestrator = Orchestrator()

# Define multi-agent workflow
workflow = orchestrator.create_workflow('data-pipeline')

# Add workflow steps
workflow.add_step(
    'extract',
    agent_id='agent-1',
    method='data.extract',
    params={'source': 'database'}
)

workflow.add_step(
    'transform',
    agent_id='agent-2',
    method='data.transform',
    params={'format': 'json'},
    depends_on=['extract']
)

workflow.add_step(
    'load',
    agent_id='agent-3',
    method='data.load',
    params={'destination': 'warehouse'},
    depends_on=['transform']
)

# Execute workflow
result = await orchestrator.execute_workflow(workflow)
print(f"Workflow Status: {result.status}")
print(f"Total Duration: {result.duration}s")
```

### A2A Error Handling

```python
from cleveragents.a2a import A2AClient, A2AError

client = A2AClient(agent_id='local-agent')

try:
    result = await client.call_agent(
        agent_id='remote-agent',
        method='automation.execute',
        params={'automation_id': 'auto-123'},
        timeout=300,
        retry_count=3,
        retry_backoff=2.0
    )
except A2AError as e:
    print(f"A2A Error: {e.code} - {e.message}")
    if e.code == 'AGENT_UNAVAILABLE':
        # Handle unavailable agent
        print("Remote agent is unavailable, using fallback")
    elif e.code == 'TIMEOUT':
        # Handle timeout
        print("Request timed out, retrying with longer timeout")
```

## Enhanced Automation Execution

### Subplan System

v3.7.0 introduces a sophisticated subplan system for hierarchical automation execution.

#### Subplan Features

- **Hierarchical Execution**: Organize automations into parent-child relationships
- **Parallel Execution**: Execute multiple subplans in parallel
- **Conditional Logic**: Branch execution based on conditions
- **Error Recovery**: Automatic error recovery and rollback
- **Progress Tracking**: Real-time progress tracking across subplans

#### Creating Subplans

```python
from cleveragents.execution import Plan, Subplan

# Create main plan
main_plan = Plan(name='data-processing')

# Create subplans
extract_subplan = Subplan(
    name='extract-data',
    parent_plan=main_plan,
    parallel=False
)

transform_subplan = Subplan(
    name='transform-data',
    parent_plan=main_plan,
    parallel=False,
    depends_on=[extract_subplan]
)

load_subplan = Subplan(
    name='load-data',
    parent_plan=main_plan,
    parallel=False,
    depends_on=[transform_subplan]
)

# Execute plan with subplans
result = await main_plan.execute()
print(f"Plan Status: {result.status}")
print(f"Subplan Results:")
for subplan_result in result.subplan_results:
    print(f"  {subplan_result.name}: {subplan_result.status}")
```

### Plan Correction and Rollback

Automatically correct and rollback failed plans.

```python
from cleveragents.execution import PlanCorrector

corrector = PlanCorrector()

# Detect plan issues
issues = await corrector.analyze_plan(plan_id='plan-123')
for issue in issues:
    print(f"Issue: {issue.type} - {issue.description}")

# Correct plan
corrected_plan = await corrector.correct_plan(
    plan_id='plan-123',
    auto_fix=True
)

# Rollback plan
await corrector.rollback_plan(plan_id='plan-123')
```

### Checkpoint System

Create and manage checkpoints for plan recovery.

```python
from cleveragents.execution import CheckpointManager

checkpoint_mgr = CheckpointManager()

# Create checkpoint
checkpoint = await checkpoint_mgr.create_checkpoint(
    plan_id='plan-123',
    name='before-critical-step',
    metadata={'step': 'data-validation'}
)

# List checkpoints
checkpoints = await checkpoint_mgr.list_checkpoints(plan_id='plan-123')
for cp in checkpoints:
    print(f"{cp.name}: {cp.created_at}")

# Restore from checkpoint
await checkpoint_mgr.restore_checkpoint(checkpoint_id='cp-123')
```

## Advanced Skill Management

### Skill Discovery and Registration

Automatically discover and register skills.

```python
from cleveragents.skills import SkillRegistry, SkillDiscovery

# Initialize skill discovery
discovery = SkillDiscovery(
    search_paths=[
        '/usr/local/lib/cleveragents/skills',
        './custom_skills'
    ]
)

# Discover skills
discovered_skills = await discovery.discover_skills()
print(f"Found {len(discovered_skills)} skills")

# Register skills
registry = SkillRegistry()
for skill in discovered_skills:
    await registry.register_skill(skill)

# List registered skills
skills = await registry.list_skills()
for skill in skills:
    print(f"{skill.name}: {skill.description}")
```

### Skill Composition

Compose multiple skills into complex workflows.

```python
from cleveragents.skills import SkillComposer

composer = SkillComposer()

# Create skill composition
composition = composer.create_composition('data-pipeline')

# Add skills
composition.add_skill('extract-data', 'data.extract')
composition.add_skill('validate-data', 'data.validate')
composition.add_skill('transform-data', 'data.transform')
composition.add_skill('load-data', 'data.load')

# Define skill connections
composition.connect('extract-data', 'validate-data')
composition.connect('validate-data', 'transform-data')
composition.connect('transform-data', 'load-data')

# Execute composition
result = await composition.execute()
```

### Skill Versioning

Manage multiple versions of skills.

```python
from cleveragents.skills import SkillVersionManager

version_mgr = SkillVersionManager()

# Create new skill version
new_version = await version_mgr.create_version(
    skill_name='data-extract',
    version='2.0.0',
    changes='Improved performance and error handling'
)

# List skill versions
versions = await version_mgr.list_versions('data-extract')
for version in versions:
    print(f"{version.version}: {version.created_at}")

# Set default version
await version_mgr.set_default_version('data-extract', '2.0.0')

# Rollback to previous version
await version_mgr.rollback_version('data-extract', '1.9.0')
```

## Improved Developer Experience

### Enhanced CLI

The CLI has been significantly improved with better commands and output formatting.

```bash
# New CLI commands
cleveragents automation list --format=table --sort=created_at
cleveragents automation show auto-123 --include=metrics,logs
cleveragents automation execute auto-123 --dry-run
cleveragents automation cancel auto-123 --force

# Session management
cleveragents session list --filter="status=running"
cleveragents session show session-123 --export=json
cleveragents session export session-123 --output=session.json
cleveragents session import session.json

# Skill management
cleveragents skill list --category=data
cleveragents skill show skill-123 --include=documentation,examples
cleveragents skill test skill-123 --verbose

# Configuration
cleveragents config get automation.timeout
cleveragents config set automation.timeout 600
cleveragents config validate
```

### SDK Improvements

Enhanced Python SDK with better type hints and documentation.

```python
from cleveragents import CleverAgents
from cleveragents.models import Automation, Session, Skill

# Initialize SDK
ca = CleverAgents(
    api_key='sk-...',
    base_url='http://localhost:8000'
)

# Type-safe automation management
automation: Automation = await ca.automations.create(
    name='my-automation',
    description='My automation',
    skills=['skill-1', 'skill-2']
)

# Type-safe session management
session: Session = await ca.sessions.create(
    automation_id=automation.id,
    context={'project_id': 'proj-123'}
)

# Type-safe skill management
skill: Skill = await ca.skills.get('skill-123')
print(f"Skill: {skill.name} - {skill.description}")
```

### Debugging and Logging

Enhanced debugging capabilities with detailed logging.

```python
from cleveragents.debugging import Debugger, DebugLevel

# Enable debugging
debugger = Debugger(level=DebugLevel.VERBOSE)

# Debug automation execution
with debugger.trace_execution('auto-123'):
    result = await automation.execute()

# Get debug logs
logs = debugger.get_logs()
for log in logs:
    print(f"[{log.level}] {log.timestamp}: {log.message}")

# Export debug information
await debugger.export_debug_info('debug-export.zip')
```
