🤖 Fix all issues with AI agents

In @.env.example:
- Around line 56-92: Update the .env.example so the env var names map to
Settings fields: rename AGENT_MAX_TOOL_CALLS_PER_TURN to AGENT_MAX_TOOL_CALLS
(maps to agent_max_tool_calls) and rename AGENT_APPROVAL_REQUIRED_ACTIONS to
AGENT_REQUIRE_APPROVAL (maps to agent_require_approval). Also change the list
value to a JSON array string (e.g., ["create_alias","archive_run"]) and add a
short comment showing that JSON-array format is required for safe parsing;
remove or deprecate the old names to avoid confusion.

In `@app/core/config.py`:
- Around line 122-146: The validator validate_model_identifier currently allows
identifiers like "anthropic:" because it only checks the provider; update
validate_model_identifier (decorated for agent_default_model and
agent_fallback_model) to split on ":" and ensure the part after the colon (model
name) is non-empty and not just whitespace, and raise a ValueError with a clear
message when the model-name is missing or blank; keep the existing provider
validation and error messages but add this guard immediately after splitting.

In `@app/features/agents/service.py`:
- Around line 468-486: The placeholder result for approved actions must be
replaced with real re-execution of the pending tool: locate the approval handler
around the ApprovalResponse creation (references: action_id, approved, result,
status, db.flush, ApprovalResponse) and call the existing executor used
elsewhere (e.g., the function that runs pending tools or a new helper like
execute_pending_action(action_id) that replays the original action payload),
capture its output into result, set status to "executed" on success or
"rejected"/"expired" on failure/timeouts, persist any state changes to the DB
before returning, and ensure exceptions are caught and logged so
ApprovalResponse returns actual execution output and correct status.

In `@app/features/agents/tools/backtesting_tools.py`:
- Around line 38-60: The docstring for the factory that returns
NaiveModelConfig, SeasonalNaiveModelConfig, or MovingAverageModelConfig
incorrectly lists "linear_regression"; update the docstring to enumerate the
actual supported model_type values ("naive", "seasonal_naive", "moving_average")
and adjust any parameter description (e.g., season_length) to match behavior, or
alternatively implement a LinearRegressionModelConfig and handle
"linear_regression" in the function; refer to the existing return branches
(NaiveModelConfig, SeasonalNaiveModelConfig, MovingAverageModelConfig) to locate
the code to change.
- Around line 246-266: The MAE percent-improvement calculation can divide by
zero; update the branches that compute pct_better (the blocks using
metrics_a/metrics_b, main_a/main_b and writing into
comparison["recommendation"]) to guard the denominator: before computing
pct_better check if the denominator (mae_b in the mae_a < mae_b branch and mae_a
in the mae_b < mae_a branch) is zero; if it is, produce a recommendation that
uses an absolute MAE difference or says the improvement is
"infinite/undetermined" instead of performing the division; apply the same safe
logic to both branches so no ZeroDivisionError can occur.

In `@app/features/agents/tools/forecasting_tools.py`:
- Around line 35-57: Update the function docstring to accurately reflect the
supported model_type options (naive, seasonal_naive, moving_average) and remove
the incorrect reference to linear_regression; also note that seasonal_naive
accepts a season_length (default 7) as used when creating
SeasonalNaiveModelConfig, and ensure the "Returns" and "Raises" sections remain
correct for NaiveModelConfig, SeasonalNaiveModelConfig, and
MovingAverageModelConfig.
- Around line 60-119: Add input guards in the agent tools before calling the
service: in train_model(), verify train_start_date <= train_end_date and
raise/return an error if not (do this right after logging and before
_create_model_config / service.train_model call); in predict(), verify horizon
is <= forecast_max_horizon (use the existing forecast_max_horizon setting or
constant) and raise/return an error if exceeded before calling
ForecastingService.predict. Also consider mirroring these checks in
ForecastingService (methods train_model and predict) so service-level validation
exists if agent tools are bypassed.

In `@app/features/agents/tools/registry_tools.py`:
- Around line 73-88: The code does an unchecked conversion RunStatus(status)
which will raise an uncaught ValueError for invalid strings; wrap that
conversion in a try/except ValueError block in the function that uses
RegistryService.list_runs, validate the incoming status string before calling
RunStatus, and on failure raise a clear error (e.g., raise ValueError("Invalid
run status: '...'; valid values: [...]") or convert to an HTTP 400 via
HTTPException if this is an API layer). Update the code around the
RunStatus(status) line (and adjust callers of list_runs if needed) so invalid
status values are handled gracefully before calling service.list_runs and return
the same result.model_dump() on success.

In `@app/features/agents/websocket.py`:
- Around line 26-42: The current get_db_for_websocket yields a single
AsyncSession for the entire WebSocket lifetime which can cause stale data and
memory growth; change to a session-per-message approach by removing the
long-lived AsyncSession dependency from websocket_stream and instead obtain a
session maker (get_session_maker) inside websocket_stream and create/close an
async session for each incoming message (or periodically) using "async with
session_maker() as session" around message handling; alternatively provide a
dependency that yields a session factory/callable rather than a session so
websocket_stream can create short-lived sessions on demand (ensure each session
is closed to avoid accumulating ORM objects and stale state).

In `@docs/PHASE/9-AGENTIC_LAYER.md`:
- Around line 4-6: Update the PR reference string that currently points to
"https://github.com/w7-mgfcode/ForecastLabAI/pull/55" and the visible PR number
"#55" to the correct PR number "#56" (and corresponding URL "/pull/56") so the
PR link and the PR reference in the document match the objectives; look for the
PR link and the PR number near the header referencing PRP-10-agentic-layer.md
and INITIAL-10.md and replace both occurrences.

In `@README.md`:
- Around line 513-572: Update the README's Agentic Layer configuration to match
the defaults and names in app/core/config.py: change AGENT_TEMPERATURE from 0.0
to 0.1, AGENT_SESSION_TTL_MINUTES from 30 to 120, and
AGENT_APPROVAL_TIMEOUT_MINUTES from 5 to 60; replace the documented
AGENT_MODEL_NAME with the actual config key agent_default_model (and mention
agent_fallback_model as the fallback); add the missing configuration entries
agent_timeout_seconds, agent_retry_attempts, agent_retry_delay_seconds,
agent_max_sessions_per_user, and agent_enable_streaming to the examples and
defaults; and ensure all environment variable names and example values in the
README match the symbols used in app/core/config.py.

🧹 Nitpick comments (12)

pyproject.toml (1)

165-169: Scope Pyright's unknown-type relaxations to the agents package.

Global downgrades can mask unrelated issues. Using executionEnvironments with a root path targeting app/features/agents allows you to relax these checks only where needed while maintaining stricter type coverage elsewhere:

Example implementation

 [tool.pyright]
 include = ["app"]
@@
-# Agents feature uses PydanticAI which has partial type coverage
-# Relax unknown type checks for dynamic agent result handling
-reportUnknownVariableType = "warning"
-reportUnknownArgumentType = "warning"
-reportUnknownMemberType = "warning"
+executionEnvironments = [
+  { root = "app/features/agents",
+    reportUnknownVariableType = "warning",
+    reportUnknownArgumentType = "warning",
+    reportUnknownMemberType = "warning"
+  }
+]

app/features/agents/tests/test_models.py (1)

163-168: Test validates UUID format, not model behavior.

This test validates that uuid.uuid4().hex produces a 32-char hex string, which is testing Python's uuid module rather than the AgentSession model itself. Consider renaming to clarify intent or converting to a test that validates the model's session_id field constraints (e.g., length validation in the schema layer).

app/features/agents/agents/base.py (2)

1-14: Consider using the project's logging helper for consistency.

Line 14 uses structlog.get_logger() directly. The codebase has app.core.logging.get_logger() (see relevant snippet from app/core/logging.py, Lines 58-68) which provides consistent logger configuration. Consider using it for uniformity, though this is a minor consistency point.

---

56-82: Add defensive check for model identifier format.

Line 66 uses model.split(":")[0] which will return the full string if no colon exists, potentially causing silent misconfiguration. Consider adding validation:

🛡️ Proposed fix to validate model format

 def validate_api_key_for_model(model: str) -> None:
     ...
     settings = get_settings()
-    provider = model.split(":")[0]
+    if ":" not in model:
+        raise ValueError(
+            f"Invalid model identifier '{model}'. Expected format: 'provider:model-name'"
+        )
+    provider = model.split(":")[0]
 
     if provider == "anthropic" and not settings.anthropic_api_key:

app/features/agents/agents/experiment.py (2)

151-209: Add error handling for date parsing.

Lines 194-195 use date.fromisoformat() which raises ValueError on invalid format. Since LLMs may produce malformed dates, consider wrapping with error handling:

🛡️ Proposed fix for date parsing error handling

         # Parse date strings
-        start = date.fromisoformat(start_date)
-        end = date.fromisoformat(end_date)
+        try:
+            start = date.fromisoformat(start_date)
+            end = date.fromisoformat(end_date)
+        except ValueError as e:
+            return {
+                "error": f"Invalid date format: {e}. Expected YYYY-MM-DD.",
+                "start_date": start_date,
+                "end_date": end_date,
+            }
 
         return await run_backtest(

---

211-227: Tool using @agent.tool_plain does not track tool calls.

This tool uses @agent.tool_plain which doesn't receive RunContext, so it cannot increment tool_call_count. This is intentional for pure functions, but the metric tracking will undercount total tool invocations. If tracking is important for auditing, consider switching to @agent.tool and incrementing the counter.

app/features/agents/tests/test_tools.py (1)

177-228: Consider adding test coverage for run_backtest.

The TestBacktestingTools class only tests compare_backtest_results. Consider adding tests for the run_backtest function to verify it correctly builds configurations and calls BacktestingService.

app/features/agents/service.py (2)

565-584: Type signature mismatch in _deserialize_messages.

The return type is list[ModelMessage] but the implementation returns list[dict[str, Any]] directly. While the comment explains that PydanticAI accepts dicts, this type mismatch could cause confusion and type checker issues elsewhere.

Consider updating the return type to reflect the actual behavior:

     def _deserialize_messages(
         self,
         data: list[dict[str, Any]],
-    ) -> list[ModelMessage]:
+    ) -> list[dict[str, Any]] | list[ModelMessage]:

Or cast explicitly with documentation:

return cast(list[ModelMessage], data)  # PydanticAI accepts dicts as message history

---

256-259: Tool calls list is always empty in response.

Lines 256-259 initialize tool_calls as an empty list and the comment explains that PydanticAI doesn't expose tool call details in the result object. The tool_calls field in ChatResponse will always be empty, which may confuse API consumers expecting to see what tools were called.

Consider either documenting this limitation in the API response schema or removing the field until it can be populated.

app/features/agents/websocket.py (1)

134-160: Consider moving import to module level.

The datetime import at line 148 is inside the function. While functional, moving it to the module-level imports would be more consistent with Python conventions.

📝 Proposed fix

15-29: Consider using the centralized get_logger for consistency.

The module uses structlog.get_logger() directly, but the project provides a configured logger via app.core.logging.get_logger(). Using the centralized helper ensures consistent logging configuration (e.g., request_id binding) across the codebase.

261-316: Consider extracting approval detection logic to reduce duplication.

The approval detection logic (lines 261-316) is nearly identical to the code in stream_chat() (lines 430-483). This violates the DRY principle and creates maintenance burden—any bug fix or enhancement would need to be applied in two places.

♻️ Suggested refactor

Extract the approval detection into a private helper method:

def _extract_approval_from_result(
    self,
    result_data: Any,
    now: datetime,
) -> tuple[bool, dict[str, Any] | None]:
    """Extract pending approval info from agent result.
    
    Returns:
        Tuple of (pending_approval, pending_action_dict or None).
    """
    if hasattr(result_data, "pending_action") and result_data.pending_action:
        pending_action_data = result_data.pending_action
        if isinstance(pending_action_data, dict):
            action_type = pending_action_data.get("action_type", "unknown")
            arguments = pending_action_data.get("arguments", {})
            description = pending_action_data.get(
                "description", f"Agent requested approval for {action_type}"
            )
        else:
            action_type = getattr(pending_action_data, "action_type", "unknown")
            arguments = getattr(pending_action_data, "arguments", {})
            description = getattr(
                pending_action_data,
                "description",
                f"Agent requested approval for {action_type}",

        return True, {
            "action_id": uuid.uuid4().hex[:16],
            "action_type": action_type,
            "description": description,
            "arguments": arguments,
            "created_at": now.isoformat(),
            "expires_at": (
                now + timedelta(minutes=self.settings.agent_approval_timeout_minutes)
            ).isoformat(),
        }

            ).isoformat(),
        }
    
    return False, None

Then use in both chat() and stream_chat():

pending_approval, pending_action_dict = self._extract_approval_from_result(result_data, now)
if pending_action_dict:
    session.pending_action = pending_action_dict
    session.status = SessionStatus.AWAITING_APPROVAL.value
    pending_action = self._format_pending_action(session.pending_action)

---

588-598: Execution failure status may be misleading.

When an approved action fails to execute (line 598), the status is set to "rejected". This is semantically misleading—the action was approved but failed to execute. The ApprovalResponse.status type is Literal["executed", "rejected", "expired"], which doesn't have a "failed" option.

Consider either:

1. Adding "failed" to the ApprovalResponse.status literal type in schemas.py
2. Documenting this semantic overload where "rejected" means "approved but failed"

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Potential ValueError if datetime fields are empty or malformed.

Lines 727-728 call datetime.fromisoformat() on values obtained via .get("created_at", "") and .get("expires_at", ""). If these fields are missing or contain empty strings, datetime.fromisoformat("") will raise ValueError: Invalid isoformat string: ''.

While the code that creates pending_action dicts properly sets these fields, defensive programming would protect against malformed/legacy data.

+            created_at = datetime.fromisoformat(pending.get("created_at", ""))

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Missing validation for required arguments could cause confusing downstream errors.

Lines 753-754 default alias_name and run_id to empty strings. If these required arguments are missing from the pending action data, the downstream create_alias or archive_run calls will fail with less helpful error messages.

Consider validating required arguments upfront for clearer error reporting.

PydanticAI v1.48.0 model identifiers documentation

💡 Result:

In PydanticAI v1.x (including v1.48.0), the documented “model identifier” string format you pass to Agent(...) is:

• "<provider>:<model>" (e.g. openai:gpt-5, openrouter:google/gemini-2.5-pro-preview) — PydanticAI will infer the appropriate model class/provider/profile from this string. [1]
• If you’re using Pydantic AI Gateway, you can prefix with "gateway/", e.g. gateway/openai:gpt-5. [2]

Documentation pages:

• Models & Providers → Overview (explains the <provider>:<model> identifier and auto-selection behavior). [1]

• google-gla in PydanticAI means “Google Generative Language API” (Gemini via generativelanguage.googleapis.com) and is used with a Google AI Studio API key (GOOGLE_API_KEY). [2]
• Gemini 3 Flash exists (Google has rolled it out as a faster/lower-latency “Flash” tier). [3]
• In PydanticAI, the Google integration (pydantic_ai.models.google.GoogleModel) lists Gemini 3 preview model names including gemini-3-flash-preview (plus gemini-3-pro-preview, etc.). [1]

Minimal PydanticAI example (GLA + Gemini 3 Flash preview)

# pip install "pydantic-ai-slim[google]"

• Line 397: google-gla:gemini-2-5-pro should be google-gla:gemini-2.5-pro (use dot notation, not hyphens)

Line 398 anthropic:claude-opus-4-5 is correct. These follow PydanticAI v1.48.0's <provider>:<model> identifier format.
