The shortest useful agent feature in a consumer app is repeat purchase. Here is the whole path — the intent, the three tools behind it, and the confirm card that stops it going wrong.
The agent answers, then names the widgets your app should draw. What that JSON looks like, how the SDK maps it onto native views, and where your own components fit into it.
A support bot answers questions. An in-app agent finishes the task — finds the order, fills the form, asks before it charges. The difference is structural, not a matter of prompting.
Arabic is not one language in practice. What it takes to recognise a dozen dialects on the way in, and to stay intelligible to all of them on the way out.
Confirm cards, biometric tiering, and why an agent should never act on a transcript alone. The safety model sitting behind every state-changing tool call.
Your existing API is usually enough. How to expose it as tools an agent can call, what to leave out of the schema, and how far you get in an afternoon.
