## Evidence notes (from repository text)
- README summary paragraph: Better Agents is a CLI tool and a set of standards for agent building.
- Better Agents is a CLI tool and a set of standards for agent building.
- It supercharges your coding assistant (Kilocode, Claude Code, Cursor, etc), making it an expert in any agent framework you choose (Agno, Mastra, LangGraph etc) and all their best practices.
- It's the best way to start any new agent project.
- The Better Agent Structure and generated AGENTS.md ensures industry best practices, making your agent ready for production:
- ├── app/ (or src/) # The actual agent code, according to the chosen framework

## Installation hints found in README
- `npm install -g @langwatch/better-agents`

## worker.md contract (derived starter)
Purpose: Execute one orchestrated agent task as a bounded worker step.

### Input schema
```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "additionalProperties": false,
  "required": [
    "run_id",
    "task",
    "context"
  ],
  "properties": {
    "run_id": {
      "type": "string"
    },
    "task": {
      "type": "string"
    },
    "context": {
      "type": "object"
    }
  }
}
```

### Output schema
```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "additionalProperties": false,
  "required": [
    "run_id",
    "status",
    "result"
  ],
  "properties": {
    "run_id": {
      "type": "string"
    },
    "status": {
      "type": "string",
      "enum": [
        "ok",
        "retryable_error",
        "invalid_request",
        "invalid_output"
      ]
    },
    "result": {
      "type": "object"
    }
  }
}
```

### Constraints
- timeout_seconds: 30
- max_attempts: 2
- idempotency_key: run_id
- status_enum: [ok, retryable_error, invalid_request, invalid_output]
- notes: adapt to concrete APIs/classes documented in this repository before production use

## How this should be used
1. Treat this file as a repo-derived starter profile, not a claim of an official repository API contract.
2. Replace schemas with exact interfaces from code/docs you adopt.
3. Keep execution bounded and auditable using worker protocol constraints.

How to use#

• Save this as a worker spec file (for example: better-agents-my-task.worker.md).
• Replace the input/output schemas and purpose with your real bounded task.
• Enforce schema validation + timeout + retry policy in your runtime before production use.
