{
  "dbPath": ".agentdb/fleet.db",
  "enableQUICSync": false,
  "enableLearning": false,
  "enableReasoning": true,
  "cacheSize": 1000,
  "vectorDimension": 384
}
EOF

# 4. Verify setup
ls -la .agentdb/

---

QUIC Sync Migration

Step 1: Remove Custom QUIC Code

# Remove deprecated files
rm -f src/core/transport/QUICTransport.ts
rm -f src/core/memory/AgentDBIntegration.ts
rm -f src/types/quic.ts

# Remove tests for custom implementation
rm -rf tests/transport/
rm -rf tests/integration/quic-*.test.ts

Step 2: Configure AgentDB QUIC Sync

Update .agentdb/config.json:

{
  "dbPath": ".agentdb/fleet.db",
  "enableQUICSync": true,
  "syncPort": 4433,
  "syncPeers": [
    "192.168.1.10:4433",
    "192.168.1.11:4433"
  ],
  "syncInterval": 1000,
  "syncBatchSize": 100,
  "maxRetries": 3,
  "compression": true,
  "enableReasoning": true,
  "cacheSize": 1000
}

Step 3: Initialize AgentDB Adapter

Create src/core/memory/AgentDBAdapter.ts:

import { createAgentDBAdapter } from 'agentic-flow/reasoningbank';
import { readFileSync } from 'fs';

export class AgentDBAdapter {
  private adapter: any;

  async initialize(): Promise<void> {
    const config = JSON.parse(
      readFileSync('.agentdb/config.json', 'utf-8')
    );

    this.adapter = await createAgentDBAdapter(config);
    console.log('[AgentDB] Initialized with QUIC sync');
  }

  async insertPattern(pattern: any): Promise<void> {
    return this.adapter.insertPattern(pattern);
  }

  async queryPatterns(embedding: number[], limit: number = 10): Promise<any[]> {
    return this.adapter.queryPatterns(embedding, limit);
  }

  async enableQUICSync(): Promise<void> {
    // Already enabled via config
    console.log('[AgentDB] QUIC sync already active');
  }

  async shutdown(): Promise<void> {
    await this.adapter.close();
  }
}

Step 4: Update SwarmMemoryManager Integration

Edit src/core/memory/SwarmMemoryManager.ts:

import { AgentDBAdapter } from './AgentDBAdapter';

export class SwarmMemoryManager {
  private agentdb?: AgentDBAdapter;

  async initialize(): Promise<void> {
    // ... existing initialization ...

    // Initialize AgentDB if enabled
    if (this.config.features?.agentDBSync) {
      this.agentdb = new AgentDBAdapter();
      await this.agentdb.initialize();
      console.log('[SwarmMemoryManager] AgentDB sync enabled');
    }
  }

  async store(key: string, value: any, options?: any): Promise<void> {
    // Store in SQLite (existing)
    await super.store(key, value, options);

    // Sync to AgentDB if enabled
    if (this.agentdb && options?.syncToAgentDB !== false) {
      const embedding = await this.computeEmbedding(JSON.stringify(value));
      await this.agentdb.insertPattern({
        id: key,
        type: 'memory-entry',
        domain: options?.partition || 'default',
        pattern_data: JSON.stringify({
          embedding,
          pattern: value
        }),
        confidence: 1.0,
        usage_count: 1,
        success_count: 1,
        created_at: Date.now(),
        last_used: Date.now()
      });
    }
  }

  private async computeEmbedding(text: string): Promise<number[]> {
    // Simple hash-based embedding for prototype
    // Replace with actual embedding model in production
    const hash = text.split('').reduce((acc, char) =>
      ((acc << 5) - acc) + char.charCodeAt(0), 0);
    return Array.from({ length: 384 }, (_, i) =>
      Math.sin(hash * (i + 1)) * 0.1
    );
  }
}

Step 5: Multi-Node Configuration

Node 1 (192.168.1.10):

{
  "dbPath": ".agentdb/node1.db",
  "enableQUICSync": true,
  "syncPort": 4433,
  "syncPeers": ["192.168.1.11:4433", "192.168.1.12:4433"]
}

Node 2 (192.168.1.11):

{
  "dbPath": ".agentdb/node2.db",
  "enableQUICSync": true,
  "syncPort": 4433,
  "syncPeers": ["192.168.1.10:4433", "192.168.1.12:4433"]
}

Node 3 (192.168.1.12):

{
  "dbPath": ".agentdb/node3.db",
  "enableQUICSync": true,
  "syncPort": 4433,
  "syncPeers": ["192.168.1.10:4433", "192.168.1.11:4433"]
}

Learning Plugin Migration

Step 1: Create Learning Plugin

# Create Decision Transformer plugin (recommended)
npx agentdb@latest create-plugin \
  -t decision-transformer \
  -n qe-pattern-predictor \
  -o .agentdb/plugins

# Or use interactive wizard
npx agentdb@latest create-plugin

Step 2: Configure Learning

Update .agentdb/config.json:

{
  "enableLearning": true,
  "learningAlgorithm": "decision-transformer",
  "pluginPath": ".agentdb/plugins/qe-pattern-predictor",
  "trainingConfig": {
    "batchSize": 32,
    "epochs": 50,
    "learningRate": 0.001
  }
}

Step 3: Migrate Training Data

Convert QEReasoningBank patterns to AgentDB format:

import { QEReasoningBank } from './learning/QEReasoningBank';
import { AgentDBAdapter } from './core/memory/AgentDBAdapter';

async function migratePatterns() {
  const reasoningBank = new QEReasoningBank();
  const agentdb = new AgentDBAdapter();
  await agentdb.initialize();

  // Load existing patterns
  const patterns = Array.from(reasoningBank['patterns'].values());
  console.log(`Migrating ${patterns.length} patterns...`);

  for (const pattern of patterns) {
    const embedding = await computeEmbedding(
      JSON.stringify(pattern.template)
    );

    await agentdb.insertPattern({
      id: pattern.id,
      type: 'test-pattern',
      domain: pattern.category,
      pattern_data: JSON.stringify({
        embedding,
        pattern: pattern.template,
        metadata: {
          framework: pattern.framework,
          language: pattern.language,
          confidence: pattern.confidence
        }
      }),
      confidence: pattern.confidence,
      usage_count: pattern.usageCount || 0,
      success_count: Math.floor(pattern.successRate * pattern.usageCount),
      created_at: Date.now(),
      last_used: Date.now()
    });
  }

  console.log('Migration complete!');
}

Step 4: Update Agent Pattern Prediction

Replace NeuralPatternMatcher with AgentDB:

export class TestGeneratorAgent extends BaseAgent {
  private agentdb?: AgentDBAdapter;

  async initialize(): Promise<void> {
    await super.initialize();

    if (this.config.enableAgentDBLearning) {
      this.agentdb = new AgentDBAdapter();
      await this.agentdb.initialize();
    }
  }

  protected async getPatternRecommendation(context: any): Promise<any[]> {
    if (!this.agentdb) {
      // Fallback to rule-based QEReasoningBank
      return super.getPatternRecommendation(context);
    }

    // Use AgentDB vector search
    const queryText = `${context.codeType} ${context.framework} ${context.language}`;
    const embedding = await this.computeEmbedding(queryText);

    const results = await this.agentdb.queryPatterns(embedding, 5);

    return results.map(r => ({
      pattern: JSON.parse(r.pattern_data).pattern,
      confidence: r.similarity,
      reasoning: `AgentDB: ${r.similarity.toFixed(2)} similarity`,
      applicability: r.similarity * r.confidence
    }));
  }
}

---

Agent Integration

Update BaseAgent Configuration

Edit src/agents/BaseAgent.ts:

export interface BaseAgentConfig {
  // ... existing fields ...

  // Phase 3: AgentDB integration (opt-in)
  enableAgentDBSync?: boolean;
  enableAgentDBLearning?: boolean;
  agentdbConfig?: {
    dbPath?: string;
    syncPeers?: string[];
    learningAlgorithm?: string;
  };
}

export abstract class BaseAgent extends EventEmitter {
  protected agentdb?: AgentDBAdapter;
  protected readonly enableAgentDB: boolean;

  constructor(config: BaseAgentConfig) {
    super();
    this.enableAgentDB =
      config.enableAgentDBSync ||
      config.enableAgentDBLearning ||
      false;
  }

  async initialize(): Promise<void> {
    // ... existing initialization ...

    if (this.enableAgentDB) {
      this.agentdb = new AgentDBAdapter();
      await this.agentdb.initialize();
      console.log(`[AgentDB] Enabled for ${this.agentId.id}`);
    }
  }

  async shutdown(): Promise<void> {
    if (this.agentdb) {
      await this.agentdb.shutdown();
    }
    await super.shutdown();
  }
}

---

Testing & Validation

Unit Tests

Create tests/integration/agentdb-migration.test.ts:

import { AgentDBAdapter } from '../../src/core/memory/AgentDBAdapter';
import { SwarmMemoryManager } from '../../src/core/memory/SwarmMemoryManager';

describe('AgentDB Migration', () => {
  it('should initialize AgentDB adapter', async () => {
    const adapter = new AgentDBAdapter();
    await adapter.initialize();

    expect(adapter).toBeDefined();
    await adapter.shutdown();
  });

  it('should sync patterns to AgentDB', async () => {
    const memory = new SwarmMemoryManager(':memory:');
    memory.config.features = { agentDBSync: true };
    await memory.initialize();

    await memory.store('test-key', { data: 'value' }, { syncToAgentDB: true });

    // Verify pattern stored
    const adapter = new AgentDBAdapter();
    await adapter.initialize();
    const results = await adapter.queryPatterns(
      await memory['computeEmbedding']('value'),
      1
    );
    expect(results.length).toBeGreaterThan(0);
  });
});

Integration Tests

mv .agentic-qe/swarm.db.backup .agentic-qe/swarm.db

# 2. Restore configuration
rm -rf .agentic-qe/config
mv .agentic-qe/config.backup .agentic-qe/config

# 3. Revert to pre-migration commit
git reset --hard pre-agentdb-migration

# 4. Uninstall AgentDB
npm uninstall agentic-flow

# 5. Restart services
npm start

Partial Rollback (Keep QUIC, Remove Learning)

{
  "enableQUICSync": true,
  "enableLearning": false
}
