+# Agents
+
+Build powerful, flexible agents—backed by LLMs and tools—in a few minutes.
+
+Ollama4j’s agent system lets you bring together the best of LLM reasoning and external tool-use using a simple, declarative YAML configuration. No framework bloat, no complicated setup—just describe your agent, plug in your logic, and go.
+
+---
+
+**Why use agents in Ollama4j?**
+
+- **Effortless Customization:** Instantly adjust your agent’s persona, reasoning strategies, or domain by tweaking YAML. No need to touch your compiled Java code.
+- **Easy Extensibility:** Want new capabilities? Just add or change tools and logic classes—no framework glue or plumbing required.
+- **Fast Experimentation:** Mix-and-match models, instructions, and tools—prototype sophisticated behaviors or orchestrators in minutes.
+- **Clean Separation:** Keep business logic (Java) and agent personality/configuration (YAML) separate for maintainability and clarity.
+
+---
+
+## Define an Agent in YAML
+
+Specify everything about your agent—what LLM it uses, its “personality,” and all callable tools—in a single YAML file.
+
+**Agent YAML keys:**
+
+| Field                   | Description                                                                                                           |
+|-------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| `name`                  | Name of your agent.                                                                                                   |
+| `host`                  | The base URL for your Ollama server (e.g., `http://localhost:11434`).                                                |
+| `model`                 | The LLM backing your agent (e.g., `llama2`, `mistral`, `mixtral`, etc).                                              |
+| `customPrompt`          | _(optional)_ System prompt—instructions or persona for your agent.                                                   |
+| `tools`                 | List of tools the agent can use. Each tool entry describes the name, function, and parameters.                        |
+| `toolFunctionFQCN`      | Fully qualified Java class name implementing the tool logic. Must be present on classpath.                            |
+| `requestTimeoutSeconds` | _(optional)_ How long (seconds) to wait for agent replies.                                                            |
+
+YAML makes it effortless to configure and tweak your agent’s powers and behavior—no code changes needed!
+
+**Example agent YAML:**
+
+<CodeEmbed src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ollama4j/ollama4j-examples/refs/heads/main/src/main/resources/agent.yaml" language='yaml'/>
+
+---
+
+## Instantiating and Running Agents in Java
+
+Once your agent is described in YAML, bringing it to life in Java takes only a couple of lines:
+
+<CodeEmbed src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ollama4j/ollama4j-examples/refs/heads/main/src/main/java/io/github/ollama4j/examples/AgentExample.java"/>
+
+- **No boilerplate.** Just load and start chatting or calling tools.
+- The API takes care of wiring up LLMs, tool invocation, and instruction handling.
+
+Ready to build your own AI-powered assistant? Just write your YAML, implement the tool logic in Java, and go!

 Let's try an example. Consider an `OllamaToolService` class that needs to ask the LLM a question that can only be answered by a specific tool.
 This tool is implemented within a `GlobalConstantGenerator` class. Following is the code that exposes an annotated method as a tool:
