List Dialog Assistant as Tool

This means that the existing dialog assistant (built on Dialogues) can be integrated into a new user interface — either as:

  • a tool (a callable component used by another agent), or
  • an independent agent

In practice, this allows legacy Dialogues-based assistants to be embedded or reused inside the new Agents and Orchestrate framework without fully rebuilding them yet.

What does it imply:

  • Session variables = the contextual data that tracks the conversation’s state (for example, what the user has said, what step they’re in, or what data has been collected).
  • Agent reasoning = the internal decision-making process of the new agent framework.
  • The challenge is to track and synchronize these variables inside the new agent system so that features like:
    • Digression (when the user temporarily changes the topic and then returns to the original one), and
    • Disambiguation (when the system needs to clarify or ask “Did you mean X or Y?”)
