This tutorial walks through building an agent in iii in three pieces: the functions the agent calls as tools, the loop that drives its think-act-observe cycle, and the memory it carries between turns. By the end you'll have a working agent worker you can extend with your own tools.

# Overview
This tutorial walks through building an agent in iii in three pieces: the functions the agent calls
as tools, the loop that drives its think-act-observe cycle, and the memory it carries between turns.
By the end you'll have a working agent worker you can extend with your own tools.
## Define tools
Register the functions the agent can call as tools.
## Orchestration loop
Drive the agent's think-act-observe cycle until the task is done.
## Memory and state
Persist conversation history and intermediate state between agent turns.
