Basic Agent with Lifecycle Hooks

Simple Test Generator Agent

This example shows a basic agent using lifecycle hooks for test generation.

Memory Coordination Patterns

Producer-Consumer Pattern

// Producer Agent (Test Generator)
export class TestGeneratorAgent extends BaseAgent {
  protected async onPostTask(data: any): Promise<void> {
    const { result } = data;

    // Store generated tests for executor
    await this.memoryStore.store('generated-tests', result.tests, {
      partition: 'test_queue',
      ttl: 3600, // 1 hour
      accessLevel: AccessLevel.SWARM
    });

    // Emit event
    this.eventBus.emit('tests:ready', {
      count: result.tests.length
    });
  }
}

// Consumer Agent (Test Executor)
export class TestExecutorAgent extends BaseAgent {
  constructor(config: BaseAgentConfig) {
    super(config);

    // Listen for tests ready event
    this.registerEventHandler({
      eventType: 'tests:ready',
      handler: async (event) => {
        // Retrieve tests from memory
        const tests = await this.memoryStore.retrieve('generated-tests', {
          partition: 'test_queue'
        });

        if (tests) {
          await this.executeTests(tests);
        }
      }
    });
  }

  private async executeTests(tests: any[]): Promise<void> {
    // Execute tests...
  }
}

Coordinator-Worker Pattern

// Coordinator Agent
export class FleetCoordinatorAgent extends BaseAgent {
  protected async performTask(task: QETask): Promise<any> {
    // Store coordination plan
    await this.memoryStore.store('coordination-plan', {
      phase: 'test-generation',
      requiredAgents: ['test-generator', 'test-executor', 'coverage-analyzer']
    }, {
      partition: 'coordination',
      accessLevel: AccessLevel.SWARM
    });

    // Broadcast to workers
    this.eventBus.emit('coordination:plan-ready', {
      phase: 'test-generation'
    });

    // Wait for workers to complete
    const results = await this.waitForWorkers();

    return results;
  }

  private async waitForWorkers(): Promise<any> {
    return new Promise((resolve) => {
      const results: any[] = [];

      this.registerEventHandler({
        eventType: 'worker:completed',
        handler: async (event) => {
          results.push(event.data);

          if (results.length === 3) {
            resolve(results);
          }
        }
      });
    });
  }
}

// Worker Agent
export class WorkerAgent extends BaseAgent {
  constructor(config: BaseAgentConfig) {
    super(config);

    this.registerEventHandler({
      eventType: 'coordination:plan-ready',
      handler: async (event) => {
        // Retrieve plan
        const plan = await this.memoryStore.retrieve('coordination-plan', {
          partition: 'coordination'
        });

        // Execute assigned work
        const result = await this.performWork(plan);

        // Report completion
        this.eventBus.emit('worker:completed', {
          agentId: this.agentId.id,
          result
        });
      }
    });
  }

  private async performWork(plan: any): Promise<any> {
    // Perform work...
    return { success: true };
  }
}

Shared State Pattern

export class SharedStateAgent extends BaseAgent {
  protected async onPreTask(data: any): Promise<void> {
    // Read shared state
    const state = await this.memoryStore.retrieve('fleet-state', {
      partition: 'shared_state',
      isSystemAgent: true // Bypass access control
    });

    this.logger.info('Current fleet state', { state });
  }

  protected async onPostTask(data: any): Promise<void> {
    // Update shared state
    await this.memoryStore.store('fleet-state', {
      phase: 'testing',
      progress: 75,
      updatedBy: this.agentId.id,
      timestamp: Date.now()
    }, {
      partition: 'shared_state',
      accessLevel: AccessLevel.PUBLIC
    });

    // Broadcast state change
    this.eventBus.emit('fleet:state-changed', {
      phase: 'testing',
      progress: 75
    });
  }
}

Event-Driven Coordination

Event Priority Handling

export class PriorityHandlerAgent extends BaseAgent {
  constructor(config: BaseAgentConfig) {
    super(config);

    // Critical events (processed first)
    this.registerEventHandler({
      eventType: 'error:critical',
      handler: async (event) => {
        this.logger.error('Critical error detected', { event });
        await this.handleCriticalError(event.data);
      }
    });

    // High priority events
    this.registerEventHandler({
      eventType: 'test:failed',
      handler: async (event) => {
        this.logger.warn('Test failed', { event });
        await this.handleTestFailure(event.data);
      }
    });

    // Medium priority events
    this.registerEventHandler({
      eventType: 'test:completed',
      handler: async (event) => {
        this.logger.info('Test completed', { event });
        await this.handleTestCompletion(event.data);
      }
    });

    // Low priority events
    this.registerEventHandler({
      eventType: 'status:update',
      handler: async (event) => {
        this.logger.debug('Status update', { event });
        await this.handleStatusUpdate(event.data);
      }
    });
  }

  protected async performTask(task: QETask): Promise<any> {
    try {
      const result = await this.executeTask(task);

      // Emit with appropriate priority
      this.emitEvent('test:completed', result, 'medium');

      return result;
    } catch (error) {
      // Emit critical error
      this.emitEvent('error:critical', {
        error: error.message,
        taskId: task.id
      }, 'critical');

      throw error;
    }
  }

  private async handleCriticalError(data: any): Promise<void> {
    // Immediate action required
  }

  private async handleTestFailure(data: any): Promise<void> {
    // High priority action
  }

  private async handleTestCompletion(data: any): Promise<void> {
    // Normal processing
  }

  private async handleStatusUpdate(data: any): Promise<void> {
    // Background processing
  }

  private async executeTask(task: QETask): Promise<any> {
    return { success: true };
  }
}

Event Filtering and Routing

export class EventRouterAgent extends BaseAgent {
  constructor(config: BaseAgentConfig) {
    super(config);

    // Filter events by source
    this.registerEventHandler({
      eventType: 'test:completed',
      handler: async (event) => {
        // Only process events from test-executor agents
        if (event.source.type === 'test-executor') {
          await this.processTestCompletion(event.data);
        }
      }
    });

    // Filter events by data
    this.registerEventHandler({
      eventType: 'coverage:updated',
      handler: async (event) => {
        // Only process if coverage is below threshold
        if (event.data.coverage < 90) {
          await this.handleLowCoverage(event.data);
        }
      }
    });

    // Compound event handling
    this.registerEventHandler({
      eventType: 'test:completed',
      handler: async (event) => {
        // Wait for multiple events before processing
        await this.aggregateEvents(event);
      }
    });
  }

  private async processTestCompletion(data: any): Promise<void> {
    // Process completion
  }

  private async handleLowCoverage(data: any): Promise<void> {
    // Handle low coverage
  }

  private eventBuffer: any[] = [];

  private async aggregateEvents(event: any): Promise<void> {
    this.eventBuffer.push(event);

    // Process when we have 5 events
    if (this.eventBuffer.length >= 5) {
      await this.processBatch(this.eventBuffer);
      this.eventBuffer = [];
    }
  }

  private async processBatch(events: any[]): Promise<void> {
    // Batch processing
  }
}

Error Handling Patterns

Graceful Degradation

export class ResilientAgent extends BaseAgent {
  protected async onTaskError(data: any): Promise<void> {
    const { assignment, error } = data;

    // Attempt recovery based on error type
    if (error.message.includes('ECONNREFUSED')) {
      await this.handleConnectionError(assignment);
    } else if (error.message.includes('ETIMEDOUT')) {
      await this.handleTimeoutError(assignment);
    } else if (error.message.includes('ENOMEM')) {
      await this.handleMemoryError(assignment);
    } else {
      await this.handleUnknownError(assignment, error);
    }
  }

  private async handleConnectionError(assignment: any): Promise<void> {
    // Retry with backoff
    let retries = 0;
    const maxRetries = 3;

    while (retries < maxRetries) {
      try {

Circuit Breaker Pattern

export class CircuitBreakerAgent extends BaseAgent {
  private circuitState: 'closed' | 'open' | 'half-open' = 'closed';
  private failureCount = 0;
  private lastFailureTime = 0;
  private readonly failureThreshold = 5;
  private readonly resetTimeout = 60000; // 1 minute

  protected async performTask(task: QETask): Promise<any> {
    // Check circuit state
    if (this.circuitState === 'open') {
      const timeSinceFailure = Date.now() - this.lastFailureTime;

      if (timeSinceFailure >= this.resetTimeout) {
        // Try half-open
        this.circuitState = 'half-open';
        this.logger.info('Circuit breaker half-open');
      } else {
        throw new Error('Circuit breaker open - service unavailable');
      }
    }

    try {
      const result = await this.executeWithCircuitBreaker(task);

      // Success - reset circuit
      if (this.circuitState === 'half-open') {
        this.circuitState = 'closed';
        this.failureCount = 0;
        this.logger.info('Circuit breaker closed');
      }

      return result;
    } catch (error) {
      this.handleCircuitBreakerFailure();
      throw error;
    }
  }

  private async executeWithCircuitBreaker(task: QETask): Promise<any> {
    // Actual task execution
    return { success: true };
  }

  private handleCircuitBreakerFailure(): void {
    this.failureCount++;
    this.lastFailureTime = Date.now();

    if (this.failureCount >= this.failureThreshold) {
      this.circuitState = 'open';
      this.logger.error('Circuit breaker opened', {
        failureCount: this.failureCount
      });

      // Store circuit state
      this.storeMemory('circuit-state', {
        state: this.circuitState,
        failureCount: this.failureCount,
        timestamp: this.lastFailureTime
      });

      // Emit event
      this.emitEvent('circuit:opened', {
        agentId: this.agentId,

Performance Optimization Tips

Batch Operations

export class BatchProcessorAgent extends BaseAgent {
  private batchSize = 10;
  private taskQueue: QETask[] = [];

  protected async performTask(task: QETask): Promise<any> {
    // Add to queue
    this.taskQueue.push(task);

    // Process when batch is full
    if (this.taskQueue.length >= this.batchSize) {
      return await this.processBatch();
    }

    return { queued: true };
  }

  private async processBatch(): Promise<any> {
    const batch = this.taskQueue.splice(0, this.batchSize);

    // Process all tasks in parallel
    const results = await Promise.all(
      batch.map(task => this.processTask(task))
    );

    // Store batch results
    await this.memoryStore.store(`batch-${Date.now()}`, results, {
      partition: 'batch_results',
      ttl: 3600
    });

    return { processed: results.length };
  }

  private async processTask(task: QETask): Promise<any> {
    // Individual task processing
    return { taskId: task.id, success: true };
  }
}

Caching with Memory Store

export class CachingAgent extends BaseAgent {
  protected async performTask(task: QETask): Promise<any> {
    const cacheKey = `cache:${task.type}:${task.id}`;

    // Check cache first
    const cached = await this.memoryStore.retrieve(cacheKey, {
      partition: 'cache'
    });

    if (cached) {
      this.logger.debug('Cache hit', { taskId: task.id });
      return cached;
    }

    // Cache miss - compute result
    this.logger.debug('Cache miss', { taskId: task.id });
    const result = await this.computeResult(task);

    // Store in cache with TTL
    await this.memoryStore.store(cacheKey, result, {
      partition: 'cache',
      ttl: 3600 // 1 hour
    });

    return result;
  }

  private async computeResult(task: QETask): Promise<any> {
    // Expensive computation
    return { taskId: task.id, computed: true };
  }
}

Parallel Execution

export class ParallelExecutorAgent extends BaseAgent {
  protected async performTask(task: QETask): Promise<any> {
    // Split task into subtasks
    const subtasks = this.splitTask(task);

    // Execute all subtasks in parallel
    const results = await Promise.all(
      subtasks.map(subtask => this.executeSubtask(subtask))
    );

    // Aggregate results
    return this.aggregateResults(results);
  }

  private splitTask(task: QETask): QETask[] {
    // Split logic
    return [task, task, task]; // Example: 3 subtasks
  }

  private async executeSubtask(subtask: QETask): Promise<any> {
    // Subtask execution
    return { subtaskId: subtask.id, success: true };
  }

  private aggregateResults(results: any[]): any {
    return {
      totalSubtasks: results.length,
      success: results.every(r => r.success)
    };
  }
}

Complete Agent Examples

Test Generator Agent (Full Implementation)

See AQE-HOOKS-GUIDE.md for complete examples of:

• Test Generator Agent with lifecycle hooks
• Test Executor Agent with VerificationHookManager
• Coverage Analyzer Agent with memory coordination
• Quality Gate Agent with event-driven coordination

QE Agent Types

All QE agents follow these patterns:

1. qe-test-generator - Uses lifecycle hooks for test generation
2. qe-test-executor - Uses VerificationHookManager for execution
3. qe-coverage-analyzer - Uses memory coordination patterns
4. qe-quality-gate - Uses event-driven coordination
5. qe-performance-tester - Uses batch processing and caching
6. qe-security-scanner - Uses circuit breaker pattern
7. qe-fleet-commander - Uses coordinator-worker pattern
