🔧 Development

Adding SQLite Support

#include <sqlite3.h>

// Initialize database
sqlite3* db;
sqlite3_open("agenticai.db", &db);

// Create tables
sqlite3_exec(db, R"(
    CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS settings (
        key TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
        value TEXT
    );
    CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS history (
        id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
        timestamp DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
        role TEXT,
        content TEXT
    );
)", nullptr, nullptr, nullptr);

MCP Client Interface (Planned)

class IMCPClient {
public:
    virtual HRESULT Connect(LPCWSTR serverUrl) = 0;
    virtual HRESULT SendMessage(LPCWSTR message, IMCPCallback* callback) = 0;
    virtual HRESULT CallTool(LPCWSTR toolName, LPCWSTR args) = 0;
    virtual HRESULT Disconnect() = 0;
};
