+//! A2A (Agent-to-Agent) Protocol — cross-framework agent interoperability.
+//!
+//! Google's A2A protocol enables cross-framework agent interoperability via
+//! **Agent Cards** (JSON capability manifests) and **Task-based coordination**.
+//!
+//! This module provides:
+//! - `AgentCard` — describes an agent's capabilities to external systems
+//! - `A2aTask` — unit of work exchanged between agents
+//! - `build_agent_card` — expose OpenFang agents via A2A
+//! - `A2aClient` — discover and interact with external A2A agents

+//! Tool loop detection for the agent execution loop.
+//!
+//! Tracks tool calls within a single agent loop execution using SHA-256
+//! hashes of `(tool_name, serialized_params)`. Detects when the agent is
+//! stuck calling the same tool repeatedly and provides graduated responses:
+//! warn, block, or circuit-break the entire loop.
+//!
+//! Enhanced features beyond basic hash-counting:
+//! - **Outcome-aware detection**: tracks result hashes so identical call+result
+//!   pairs escalate faster than just repeated calls.
+//! - **Ping-pong detection**: identifies A-B-A-B or A-B-C-A-B-C alternating
+//!   patterns that evade single-hash counting.
+//! - **Poll tool handling**: relaxed thresholds for tools expected to be called
+//!   repeatedly (e.g. `shell_exec` status checks).
+//! - **Backoff suggestions**: recommends increasing wait times for polling.
+//! - **Warning bucket**: prevents spam by upgrading to Block after repeated
+//!   warnings for the same call.
+//! - **Statistics snapshot**: exposes internal state for debugging and API.

+- Plan your approach before executing multiple tool calls.

+- Never call the same tool more than 3 times with the same parameters.
+- If a message requires no response (simple acknowledgments, reactions, messages not directed at you), respond with exactly NO_REPLY.";

+//! WASM sandbox for secure skill/plugin execution.
+//!
+//! Uses Wasmtime to execute untrusted WASM modules with deny-by-default
+//! capability-based permissions. No filesystem, network, or credential
+//! access unless explicitly granted.
+//!
+//! # Guest ABI
+//!
+//! WASM modules must export:
+//! - `memory` — linear memory
+//! - `alloc(size: i32) -> i32` — allocate `size` bytes, return pointer
+//! - `execute(input_ptr: i32, input_len: i32) -> i64` — main entry point
+//!
+//! The `execute` function receives JSON input bytes and returns a packed
+//! `i64` value: `(result_ptr << 32) | result_len`. The result is JSON bytes.
+//!
+//! # Host ABI
+//!
+//! The host provides (in the `"openfang"` import module):
+//! - `host_call(request_ptr: i32, request_len: i32) -> i64` — RPC dispatch
+//! - `host_log(level: i32, msg_ptr: i32, msg_len: i32)` — logging
+//!
+//! `host_call` reads a JSON request `{"method": "...", "params": {...}}`
+//! and returns a packed pointer to JSON `{"ok": ...}` or `{"error": "..."}`.
