+Fast Context with Agent - Basic Example
+
+This is the simplest way to use Fast Context with an Agent.
+Just set fast_context=True and the agent will automatically
+have access to rapid code search capabilities.
+
+Fast Context provides:
+- 10-20x faster code search than traditional methods
+- Parallel execution (8 concurrent searches)
+- Automatic caching for repeated queries
+- Seamless integration with Agent workflows

+      "2. **Lime Juice**: Used to add a fresh, tangy citrus flavor to dishes, especially in salads and some curries.\n",
+      "\n",
+      "3. **Chilies**: Thai cuisine often features fresh Thai bird's eye chilies for heat, as well as dried chilies for certain recipes.\n",

+      "4. **Lemongrass**: A citrusy, fragrant herb that is often used in soups, curries, and teas.\n",

+      "7. **Coconut Milk**: Adds richness and creaminess, commonly used in curries and desserts.\n",
+      "\n",
+      "8. **Palm Sugar**: Used as a sweetener, palm sugar has a nuanced flavor, unlike regular sugar.\n",

-# MCP SSE Server and Client Implementation
-
-This project demonstrates a working pattern for SSE-based MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers and clients. It consists of three main components:
-
-1. **server.py**: An SSE-based MCP server that provides simple tools
-2. **client.py**: A standalone client that connects to the server and uses its tools with Claude
-3. **mcp-sse.py**: A client using praisonaiagents that connects to the server and uses its tools with OpenAI
-
-## Tools Provided by the Server
-
-The server implements two simple tools:
-
-- **get_greeting**: Returns a personalized greeting for a given name
-- **get_weather**: Returns simulated weather data for a given city
-
-## Setup and Usage
-
-### Prerequisites
-
-Make sure you have the required packages installed:
-
-```bash
-pip install praisonaiagents mcp httpx starlette uvicorn anthropic python-dotenv
-```
-
-### Running the Server
-
-First, start the MCP SSE server:
-
-```bash
-python server.py
-```
-
-By default, the server runs on 0.0.0.0:8080, but you can customize the host and port:
-
-```bash
-python server.py --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8081
-```
-
-### Running the Standalone Client
-
-The standalone client uses Claude to interact with the MCP server tools:
-
-```bash
-# Set your Anthropic API key
-export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
-
-# Run the client
-python client.py http://0.0.0.0:8080/sse
-```
-
-You'll see a prompt where you can type queries for Claude to process using the MCP tools.
-
-### Running the praisonaiagents Client
-
-The praisonaiagents client uses OpenAI to interact with the MCP server tools:
-
-```bash
-# Set your OpenAI API key
-export OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
-
-# Run the client
-python mcp-sse.py
-```
-
-This will automatically send a query about the weather in Paris to the agent.
-
-## How It Works
-
-1. The server exposes MCP tools via an SSE endpoint
-2. Clients connect to this endpoint and discover available tools
-3. When a user makes a query, the client:
-   - For client.py: Uses Claude to determine which tool to call
-   - For mcp-sse.py: Uses OpenAI to determine which tool to call
-4. The client executes the tool call against the server
-5. The result is returned to the user
-
-This pattern allows for decoupled processes where the MCP server can run independently of clients, making it suitable for cloud-native applications.
-
-## Customizing
-
-- To add more tools to the server, define new functions with the `@mcp.tool()` decorator in `server.py`
-- To change the client's behavior, update the instructions and query in `mcp-sse.py`

+# 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

+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
+
