Description
Proposes restructuring the Agent loop into discrete steps coordinated by an orchestrator. The design decomposes the loop into five layers (Clients, Steps, Middleware, Plugins, Orchestrators) while keeping the public API unchanged.
Covers capabilities enabled by this decomposition: cross-cutting middleware (e.g., guardrails), checkpointing for durable execution, sub-orchestration for swappable execution strategies, and isolated invocation state for concurrent use.
