## Agent Architectures

### ReAct Pattern

```
Input → Thought → Action → Observation → Thought → ... → Answer
```

### Plan-and-Execute

```
Input → Plan → Execute Step 1 → Execute Step 2 → ... → Synthesize
```

### Reasoning-First

```
Input → Extended Thinking → Plan → Execute → Answer
```

## Code Examples

### Basic ReAct Agent (LangChain)

```python
from langchain.agents import create_react_agent, AgentExecutor
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI
from langchain.tools import Tool

tools = [
    Tool(
        name="Calculator",
        func=lambda x: eval(x),
        description="Math calculator"
    )
]

llm = ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o")
agent = create_react_agent(llm, tools, prompt)
executor = AgentExecutor(agent=agent, tools=tools)

result = executor.invoke({"input": "What is 25 * 17?"})
```

### Multi-Agent System

```python
from langchain.agents import initialize_agent, Tool
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI

# Define specialized agents
researcher = ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o")
writer = ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o")

# Orchestrator delegates tasks
orchestrator = initialize_agent(
    tools=[
        Tool(name="research", func=research_agent),
        Tool(name="write", func=writer_agent)
    ],
    llm=ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o"),
    agent="zero-shot-react-description"
)

result = orchestrator.invoke("Research AI trends and write a summary")
```

### MCP Server Integration

```python
import anthropic

client = anthropic.Anthropic()

response = client.messages.create(
    model="claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
    max_tokens=1024,
    tools=[{
        "name": "get_weather",
        "description": "Get weather data",
        "input_schema": {
            "type": "object",
            "properties": {
                "location": {"type": "string"}
            }
        }
    }],
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Weather in NYC?"}]
)
```

### LlamaIndex Agent

```python
from llama_index.agent import ReActAgent
from llama_index.llms import OpenAI
from llama_index.tools import QueryEngineTool

llm = OpenAI(model="gpt-4o")

tools = [
    QueryEngineTool.from_defaults(
        query_engine=query_engine,
        name="docs",
        description="Documentation search"
    )
]

agent = ReActAgent.from_tools(tools, llm=llm)
response = agent.chat("How do I use embeddings?")
```

## Multi-Agent Patterns

| Pattern | Use Case |
|---------|----------|
| **Hierarchical** | Manager delegates to specialists |
| **Peer-to-Peer** | Agents collaborate as equals |
| **Sequential** | Chain of agents, each refines |
| **Parallel** | Multiple agents work simultaneously |

## MCP Ecosystem (2026)

| Server | Purpose |
|---------|---------|
| **filesystem** | File operations |
| **postgres** | Database queries |
| **puppeteer** | Web automation |
| **github** | GitHub API access |
| **slack** | Slack integration |

## EU AI Act Compliance

| Risk Tier | Requirements |
|-----------|--------------|
| **Unacceptable** | Banned (social scoring, manipulation) |
| **High-risk** | Conformity assessment, documentation |
| **Limited-risk** | Transparency obligations |
| **Minimal-risk** | No obligations |
