Annotation Interface ConditionalAgent

@Retention(RUNTIME) @Target(METHOD) public @interface ConditionalAgent
Marks a method as a definition of a conditional agent, generally used to route the agentic workflow toward one or more sub-agents according to the verification of their activation conditions. Each sub-agent has its own activation condition, a static method annotated with ActivationCondition that determines when it should be invoked.

Example: 


    public interface ExpertsAgent {

        @ConditionalAgent(outputKey = "response", subAgents = {
                @SubAgent(type = MedicalExpert.class, outputKey = "response"),
                @SubAgent(type = TechnicalExpert.class, outputKey = "response"),
                @SubAgent(type = LegalExpert.class, outputKey = "response")
        })
        String askExpert(@V("request") String request);

        @ActivationCondition(MedicalExpert.class)
        static boolean activateMedical(@V("category") RequestCategory category) {
            return category == RequestCategory.MEDICAL;
        }

        @ActivationCondition(TechnicalExpert.class)
        static boolean activateTechnical(@V("category") RequestCategory category) {
            return category == RequestCategory.TECHNICAL;
        }

        @ActivationCondition(LegalExpert.class)
        static boolean activateLegal(AgenticScope agenticScope) {
            return agenticScope.readState("category", RequestCategory.UNKNOWN) == RequestCategory.LEGAL;
        }
    }
