+### 3. Agent with Planning Mode
+
+Enable planning for any agent - the agent creates a plan, then executes step by step:
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import Agent
+
+def search_web(query: str) -> str:
+    return f"Search results for: {query}"
+
+agent = Agent(
+    name="AI Assistant",
+    instructions="Research and write about topics",
+    planning=True,              # Enable planning mode
+    planning_tools=[search_web], # Tools for planning research
+    planning_reasoning=True      # Chain-of-thought reasoning
+)
+
+result = agent.start("Research AI trends in 2025 and write a summary")
+```
+
+**What happens:**
+1. 📋 Agent creates a multi-step plan
+2. 🚀 Executes each step sequentially
+3. 📊 Shows progress with context passing
+4. ✅ Returns final result
+
+### 4. Deep Research Agent
+
+Automated research with real-time streaming, web search, and citations using OpenAI or Gemini Deep Research APIs.
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import DeepResearchAgent
+
+# OpenAI Deep Research
+agent = DeepResearchAgent(
+    model="o4-mini-deep-research",  # or "o3-deep-research"
+    verbose=True
+)
+
+result = agent.research("What are the latest AI trends in 2025?")
+print(result.report)
+print(f"Citations: {len(result.citations)}")
+```
+
+```python
+# Gemini Deep Research
+from praisonaiagents import DeepResearchAgent
+
+agent = DeepResearchAgent(
+    model="deep-research-pro",  # Auto-detected as Gemini
+    verbose=True
+)
+
+result = agent.research("Research quantum computing advances")
+print(result.report)
+```
+
+**Features:**
+- 🔍 Multi-provider support (OpenAI, Gemini, LiteLLM)
+- 📡 Real-time streaming with reasoning summaries
+- 📚 Structured citations with URLs
+- 🛠️ Built-in tools: web search, code interpreter, MCP, file search
+- 🔄 Automatic provider detection from model name
+
+### 5. Query Rewriter Agent
+
+Transform user queries to improve RAG retrieval quality using multiple strategies.
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import QueryRewriterAgent, RewriteStrategy
+
+agent = QueryRewriterAgent(model="gpt-4o-mini")
+
+# Basic - expands abbreviations, adds context
+result = agent.rewrite("AI trends")
+print(result.primary_query)  # "What are the current trends in Artificial Intelligence?"
+
+# HyDE - generates hypothetical document for semantic matching
+result = agent.rewrite("What is quantum computing?", strategy=RewriteStrategy.HYDE)
+
+# Step-back - generates broader context question
+result = agent.rewrite("GPT-4 vs Claude 3?", strategy=RewriteStrategy.STEP_BACK)
+
+# Sub-queries - decomposes complex questions
+result = agent.rewrite("RAG setup and best embedding models?", strategy=RewriteStrategy.SUB_QUERIES)
+
+# Contextual - resolves references using chat history
+result = agent.rewrite("What about cost?", chat_history=[...])
+```
+
+**Strategies:**
+- **BASIC**: Expand abbreviations, fix typos, add context
+- **HYDE**: Generate hypothetical document for semantic matching
+- **STEP_BACK**: Generate higher-level concept questions
+- **SUB_QUERIES**: Decompose multi-part questions
+- **MULTI_QUERY**: Generate multiple paraphrased versions
+- **CONTEXTUAL**: Resolve references using conversation history
+- **AUTO**: Automatically detect best strategy
+
+### 6. Agent Memory (Zero Dependencies)
+
+Enable persistent memory for agents - works out of the box without any extra packages.
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import Agent
+from praisonaiagents.memory import FileMemory
+
+# Enable memory with a single parameter
+agent = Agent(
+    name="Personal Assistant",
+    instructions="You are a helpful assistant that remembers user preferences.",
+    memory=True,  # Enables file-based memory (no extra deps!)
+    user_id="user123"  # Isolate memory per user
+)
+
+# Memory is automatically injected into conversations
+result = agent.start("My name is John and I prefer Python")
+# Agent will remember this for future conversations
+```
+
+**Memory Types:**
+- **Short-term**: Rolling buffer of recent context (auto-expires)
+- **Long-term**: Persistent important facts (sorted by importance)
+- **Entity**: People, places, organizations with attributes
+- **Episodic**: Date-based interaction history
+
+**Advanced Features:**
+```python
+from praisonaiagents.memory import FileMemory
+
+memory = FileMemory(user_id="user123")
+
+# Session Save/Resume
+memory.save_session("project_session", conversation_history=[...])
+memory.resume_session("project_session")
+
+# Context Compression
+memory.compress(llm_func=lambda p: agent.chat(p), max_items=10)
+
+# Checkpointing
+memory.create_checkpoint("before_refactor", include_files=["main.py"])
+memory.restore_checkpoint("before_refactor", restore_files=True)
+
+# Slash Commands
+memory.handle_command("/memory show")
+memory.handle_command("/memory save my_session")
+```
+
+**Storage Options:**
+| Option | Dependencies | Description |
+|--------|-------------|-------------|
+| `memory=True` | None | File-based JSON storage (default) |
+| `memory="file"` | None | Explicit file-based storage |
+| `memory="sqlite"` | Built-in | SQLite with indexing |
+| `memory="chromadb"` | chromadb | Vector/semantic search |
+

+
+### 7. Auto-Generated Memories
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents.memory import FileMemory, AutoMemory
+
+memory = FileMemory(user_id="user123")
+auto = AutoMemory(memory, enabled=True)
+
+# Automatically extracts and stores memories from conversations
+memories = auto.process_interaction(
+    "My name is John and I prefer Python for backend work"
+)
+# Extracts: name="John", preference="Python for backend"
+```
+
+### 8. Workflows
+
+Create reusable multi-step workflows in `.praison/workflows/`:
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents.memory import WorkflowManager
+
+manager = WorkflowManager()
+
+# Execute a workflow
+result = manager.execute(
+    "deploy",
+    executor=lambda prompt: agent.chat(prompt),
+    variables={"environment": "production"}
+)
+```
+
+### 9. Hooks
+
+Configure in `.praison/hooks.json`:
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents.memory import HooksManager
+
+hooks = HooksManager()
+
+# Register Python hooks
+hooks.register("pre_write_code", lambda ctx: print(f"Writing {ctx['file']}"))
+
+# Execute hooks
+result = hooks.execute("pre_write_code", {"file": "main.py"})

+## Custom Tools
+
+### Using `@tool` Decorator
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import Agent, tool
+
+@tool
+def search(query: str) -> str:
+    """Search the web for information."""
+    return f"Results for: {query}"
+
+@tool
+def calculate(expression: str) -> float:
+    """Evaluate a math expression."""
+    return eval(expression)
+
+agent = Agent(
+    instructions="You are a helpful assistant",
+    tools=[search, calculate]
+)
+agent.start("Search for AI news and calculate 15*4")
+```
+
+### Using `BaseTool` Class
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import Agent, BaseTool
+
+class WeatherTool(BaseTool):
+    name = "weather"
+    description = "Get current weather for a location"
+    
+    def run(self, location: str) -> str:
+        return f"Weather in {location}: 72°F, Sunny"
+
+agent = Agent(
+    instructions="You are a weather assistant",
+    tools=[WeatherTool()]
+)
+agent.start("What's the weather in Paris?")
+```
+
+### Creating a Tool Package (pip installable)
+
+```toml
+# pyproject.toml
+[project]
+name = "my-praisonai-tools"
+version = "1.0.0"
+dependencies = ["praisonaiagents"]
+
+[project.entry-points."praisonaiagents.tools"]
+my_tool = "my_package:MyTool"
+```
+
+```python
+# my_package/__init__.py
+from praisonaiagents import BaseTool
+
+class MyTool(BaseTool):
+    name = "my_tool"
+    description = "My custom tool"
+    
+    def run(self, param: str) -> str:
+        return f"Result: {param}"
+```
+
+After `pip install`, tools are auto-discovered:
+```python
+agent = Agent(tools=["my_tool"])  # Works automatically!
+```
+
+
+## Prompt Expansion
+
+Expand short prompts into detailed, actionable prompts:
+
+### CLI Usage
+
+```bash
+# Expand a short prompt into detailed prompt
+praisonai "write a movie script in 3 lines" --expand-prompt
+
+# With verbose output
+praisonai "blog about AI" --expand-prompt -v
+
+# With tools for context gathering
+praisonai "latest AI trends" --expand-prompt --expand-tools tools.py
+
+# Combine with query rewrite
+praisonai "AI news" --query-rewrite --expand-prompt
+```
+
+### Programmatic Usage
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import PromptExpanderAgent, ExpandStrategy
+
+# Basic usage
+agent = PromptExpanderAgent()
+result = agent.expand("write a movie script in 3 lines")
+print(result.expanded_prompt)
+
+# With specific strategy
+result = agent.expand("blog about AI", strategy=ExpandStrategy.DETAILED)
+
+# Available strategies: BASIC, DETAILED, STRUCTURED, CREATIVE, AUTO
+```
+
+**Key Difference:**
+- `--query-rewrite`: Optimizes queries for **search/retrieval** (RAG)
+- `--expand-prompt`: Expands prompts for **detailed task execution**
+
+
+## Web Search, Web Fetch & Prompt Caching
+
+### CLI Usage
+
+```bash
+# Web Search - Get real-time information
+praisonai "What are the latest AI news today?" --web-search --llm openai/gpt-4o-search-preview
+
+# Web Fetch - Retrieve and analyze URL content (Anthropic only)
+praisonai "Summarize https://docs.praison.ai" --web-fetch --llm anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514
+
+# Prompt Caching - Reduce costs for repeated prompts
+praisonai "Analyze this document..." --prompt-caching --llm anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514
+```
+
+### Programmatic Usage
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import Agent
+
+# Web Search
+agent = Agent(
+    instructions="You are a research assistant",
+    llm="openai/gpt-4o-search-preview",
+    web_search=True
+)
+
+# Web Fetch (Anthropic only)
+agent = Agent(
+    instructions="You are a content analyzer",
+    llm="anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
+    web_fetch=True
+)
+
+# Prompt Caching
+agent = Agent(
+    instructions="You are an AI assistant..." * 50,  # Long system prompt
+    llm="anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
+    prompt_caching=True
+)
+```
+
+**Supported Providers:**
+| Feature | Providers |
+|---------|-----------|
+| Web Search | OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, xAI, Perplexity |
+| Web Fetch | Anthropic |
+| Prompt Caching | OpenAI (auto), Anthropic, Bedrock, Deepseek |

+# PraisonAI Example Plugin
+
+This is a template for creating tool plugins for PraisonAI Agents.
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+# Install in development mode
+pip install -e .
+
+# Or install from PyPI (after publishing)
+pip install praisonai-example-plugin
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+After installation, tools are automatically discovered:
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import Agent
+
+# Use tools by name - they're auto-discovered!
+agent = Agent(
+    name="Assistant",
+    tools=["example_greet", "example_math", "example_reverse"]
+)
+
+# Or import and use directly
+from praisonai_example_plugin import GreetTool, MathTool, reverse_text
+
+agent = Agent(
+    name="Assistant", 
+    tools=[GreetTool(), MathTool(), reverse_text]
+)
+```
+
+## Creating Your Own Plugin
+
+1. **Copy this template**
+2. **Rename the package** in `pyproject.toml` and `src/` directory
+3. **Add your tools** following the patterns in `__init__.py`
+4. **Update entry_points** in `pyproject.toml` to register your tools
+
+### Tool Patterns
+
+**Class-based tool:**
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import BaseTool
+
+class MyTool(BaseTool):
+    name = "my_tool"
+    description = "What this tool does"
+    
+    def run(self, param: str) -> str:
+        return f"Result: {param}"
+```
+
+**Decorator-based tool:**
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import tool
+
+@tool
+def my_function(param: str) -> str:
+    """What this function does."""
+    return f"Result: {param}"
+```
+
+### Registering Tools
+
+In `pyproject.toml`:
+```toml
+[project.entry-points."praisonaiagents.tools"]
+my_tool = "my_package:MyTool"
+my_function = "my_package:my_function"
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+```bash
+pip install -e ".[dev]"
+pytest
+```
+
+## Publishing
+
+```bash
+pip install build twine
+python -m build
+twine upload dist/*
+```

+Prompt Expander Agent Module
+
+This module provides the PromptExpanderAgent class for expanding short prompts
+into detailed, comprehensive prompts for better task execution.
+
+Unlike QueryRewriterAgent (which optimizes queries for search/retrieval),
+PromptExpanderAgent focuses on enriching prompts for task execution.
+
+Supported Expansion Strategies:
+- **BASIC**: Simple expansion with clarity improvements
+- **DETAILED**: Rich expansion with context, constraints, and examples
+- **STRUCTURED**: Expansion with clear structure (task, format, requirements)
+- **CREATIVE**: Expansion with creative flair and vivid language
+- **AUTO**: Automatically selects the best strategy based on prompt analysis
+
+Example:
+    from praisonaiagents import PromptExpanderAgent, ExpandStrategy
+    
+    agent = PromptExpanderAgent(verbose=True)
+    
+    # Basic expansion
+    result = agent.expand("write a movie script in 3 lines")
+    print(result.expanded_prompt)
+    
+    # Detailed expansion
+    result = agent.expand("blog about AI", strategy=ExpandStrategy.DETAILED)
+    print(result.expanded_prompt)
+    
+    # With tools for context gathering
+    from praisonaiagents.tools import internet_search

+Query Rewriter Agent Module
+
+This module provides the QueryRewriterAgent class for transforming user queries
+to improve retrieval quality in RAG applications.
+
+Supported Rewriting Strategies:
+- **BASIC**: Simple rephrasing for clarity and keyword optimization
+- **HYDE**: Hypothetical Document Embeddings - generates a hypothetical answer
+- **STEP_BACK**: Generates higher-level concept questions for complex queries
+- **SUB_QUERIES**: Decomposes multi-part questions into focused sub-queries
+- **MULTI_QUERY**: Generates multiple paraphrased versions for ensemble retrieval
+- **CONTEXTUAL**: Uses conversation history to resolve references and context
+
+Example:
+    from praisonaiagents import QueryRewriterAgent, RewriteStrategy
+    
+    agent = QueryRewriterAgent(verbose=True)
+    
+    # Basic rewriting
+    result = agent.rewrite("AI trends")

+## Plugin System (NEW!)
+
+PraisonAI now supports a plugin system for creating and distributing tools. External developers can create pip-installable tool packages!
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import BaseTool, tool, Agent
+
+# Method 1: Class-based tool
+class WeatherTool(BaseTool):
+    name = "get_weather"
+    description = "Get weather for a location"
+    
+    def run(self, location: str) -> dict:
+        return {"temp": 72, "condition": "sunny"}
+
+# Method 2: Decorator-based tool
+@tool
+def search(query: str) -> list:
+    """Search the web."""
+    return [{"title": "Result", "url": "https://..."}]
+
+# Use with Agent
+agent = Agent(
+    name="Assistant",
+    tools=[WeatherTool(), search]
+)
+```
+
+### Creating a Plugin Package
+
+External developers can create pip-installable plugins:
+
+**1. Create your tool package:**
+```
+praisonai-weather/
+├── pyproject.toml
+├── src/
+│   └── praisonai_weather/
+│       ├── __init__.py
+│       └── tools.py
+```
+
+**2. Define your tool in `tools.py`:**
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import BaseTool
+
+class WeatherTool(BaseTool):
+    name = "weather"
+    description = "Get current weather"
+    
+    def run(self, location: str) -> dict:
+        # Your implementation
+        return {"temp": 72}
+```
+
+**3. Register via entry_points in `pyproject.toml`:**
+```toml
+[project]
+name = "praisonai-weather"
+version = "1.0.0"
+
+[project.entry-points."praisonaiagents.tools"]
+weather = "praisonai_weather.tools:WeatherTool"
+```
+
+**4. Users install and use:**
+```bash
+pip install praisonai-weather
+```
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import Agent
+
+# Tool is auto-discovered!
+agent = Agent(tools=["weather"])
+```
+
