Focus on outlining a clear architecture that integrates the three key components: tools, memory, and permissions. Start by defining the types of tools the AI agent will use and how they will interact with the agent. Then, describe the memory system—how the agent will store, retrieve, and manage information over time. Finally, detail the permissions framework, specifying how the agent will handle access control for different tools and memory data, ensuring security and compliance. Use diagrams if possible to illustrate your architecture and highlight the interactions between components.
