Grow executus/tools into a real generic tool library: - Register(reg): the always-available, zero-config tools — think, now (UTC unless a CurrentTimeProvider is wired), cite (inert unless a CitationStorage is wired). All nil-safe; a light host calls Register and is useful. - RegisterMeta(reg, MetaDeps): the LLM-backed meta tools — classify, extract_entities, summarize — over the llmmeta helper. Budget defaults to the shipped in-memory per-run cap; Files optional; caps default. - Seams moved (interface/type-only, no host coupling): research_providers.go (CurrentTimeProvider/CitationStorage/SearchBudget/PageExtractor/PDFFetcher/…) and file_storage.go (FileStorage + FileDomainMeta). Plus the in-memory budget default (research_defaults.go) and scope_validate.go. calculate deferred (drags github.com/Krognol/go-wolfram + a module-path replace — not worth it in the lean core for one tool). Core go.sum still free of gorm/redis/discordgo/sqlite/wolfram. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
executus
⚠️ This project is vibe-coded. executus is written almost entirely by an AI coding agent (Claude), with a human steering at the design and review level rather than typing the code. That's a deliberate choice, stated up front — the same way gadfly is. Read the code before you depend on it, pin a version, and file issues if something looks off. It is offered as-is.
A batteries-included base for building LLM agent harnesses in Go. Import it, do a little wiring, and you have agentic capabilities: a bounded run loop, a tool registry with a suite of common tools, context compaction, config-driven model tiering and failover, structured output, and parallel fan-out — with sensible defaults so a brand-new project is agentic with almost no setup, and pluggable seams so a serious host can swap in its own storage, config, delivery, and tools.
executus sits strictly above majordomo — the lean LLM substrate (agent
loop, canonical llm types, providers, media normalization, model parsing /
failover / tiering). majordomo stays the substrate; executus is the opinionated,
batteries-included layer on top. executus requires no changes to majordomo.
Status
Early. Being extracted, phase by phase, from the agent layer of mort (a Discord
bot) — mort and gadfly are the first two consumers (heavy and light). See
CLAUDE.md for the architecture and the extraction roadmap (P0–P6).
Available today:
run/— executus is runnable.run.Executorties model resolution, the tool registry, majordomo's agent loop, context compaction, run-bounding, and step/audit instrumentation into oneRun(ctx, RunnableAgent, inv) Result, with every host concern behind a nil-saferun.Ports(Audit/Budget/Critic/ Checkpointer/PaletteSource/Delivery).

Design
Two tiers in one module (go.mod = majordomo + stdlib only):
- Core — everything a light host needs to be agentic: run loop, tool registry + common tools, model resolution, compaction, lanes, fan-out, structured output. No persistence, no scheduling.
- Batteries (opt-in sibling packages) — persona/agent nouns, saved skills, audit, run-critic, scheduling, budgets, checkpointing. Each is nil-safe and ships a default, so you add only what you use.
Persistence that needs a real database lives in a separate nested module
(contrib/store, pure-Go SQLite) so the core never drags in a DB driver — a
static-binary host (gadfly) stays static.
