Architecture Improvements

✅ Step-Specific Loading Optimization

Legacy Architecture:

  • Single instructions.md file (~500 lines)
  • All steps loaded into memory upfront
  • No conditional loading based on agent type
  • Linear execution regardless of context

New Architecture:

  • 11 focused step files (50-150 lines each)
  • Just-in-time loading of individual steps
  • Conditional execution paths based on agent type
  • Optimized memory usage and performance

Benefits Achieved:

  • Memory Efficiency: Only load current step (~70% reduction)
  • Performance: Faster step transitions
  • Maintainability: Individual step files easier to edit
  • Extensibility: Easy to add or modify steps

✅ Enhanced Template System

Legacy:

  • Basic template references in XML
  • Limited agent type differentiation
  • Minimal customization options

New:

  • Comprehensive templates for each agent type:
    • agent-complete-simple.md - Self-contained agents
    • agent-complete-expert.md - Learning agents with sidecar
    • agent-complete-module.md - Team coordination agents
  • Detailed documentation and examples
  • Advanced configuration options

Quality Improvements
