# pydantic-ai - Doramagic AI Context Pack > Purpose: pre-work context for the user's host AI. This pack does not prove that the project has been installed, run, or validated. ## Project - canonical_name: `pydantic/pydantic-ai` - capability: AI Agent Framework, the Pydantic way - expected_user_outcome: AI Agent Framework, the Pydantic way ## Operating Boundaries - Do not claim that the project has been installed, run, called through an API, or used on local files unless separate evidence proves it. - Project facts must come from repo evidence, Claim Graph, or explicit source references. - When a capability is not verified, mark it as unverified instead of completing it as fact. - publish_status: `publishable` - blocking_gaps: none --- ## Doramagic Context Augmentation The following sections strengthen the repository context for a host AI. Human Manual data is a reading route, and pitfall notes become operating constraints. ## Human Manual Outline Usage rule: this is only a reading route and salience signal, not factual authority. Concrete claims must still return to repo evidence or Claim Graph. Host AI hard rules: - Do not treat page titles, section order, summaries, or importance values as factual project evidence. - When explaining the Human Manual outline, state that it is only a reading route or salience signal. - Capability, installation, compatibility, runtime state, and risk claims must cite repo evidence, source paths, or Claim Graph. - **Overview & Core Agent System**: importance `high` - source_paths: pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/agent/__init__.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/agent/abstract.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/agent/wrapper.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/agent/spec.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/capabilities/__init__.py - **Models, Providers & Structured Outputs**: importance `high` - source_paths: pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/models/__init__.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/models/openai.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/models/anthropic.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/models/google.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/models/bedrock.py - **Tools, Toolsets, MCP & Durable Execution**: importance `high` - source_paths: pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/tools.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/toolsets/__init__.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/toolsets/abstract.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/toolsets/function.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/toolsets/combined.py - **UI Adapters, Embeddings & Evaluation**: importance `high` - source_paths: pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/ui/__init__.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/ui/_adapter.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/ui/vercel_ai/__init__.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/ui/vercel_ai/_adapter.py, pydantic_ai_slim/pydantic_ai/ui/vercel_ai/_event_stream.py ## Repo Inspection Evidence - repo_clone_verified: true - repo_inspection_verified: true - repo_commit: `a4973543ae99f66c6f534113079c3bb25cbbb62d` - inspected_files: `uv.lock`, `pyproject.toml`, `README.md`, `docs/agent.md`, `docs/coding-agent-skills.md`, `docs/input.md`, `docs/nav.json`, `docs/thinking.md`, `docs/common-tools.md`, `docs/capabilities.md`, `docs/cli.md`, `docs/changelog.md`, `docs/embeddings.md`, `docs/troubleshooting.md`, `docs/extensibility.md`, `docs/agent-spec.md`, `docs/native-tools.md`, `docs/third-party-tools.md`, `docs/dependencies.md`, `docs/output.md` Host AI hard rules: - Without repo_clone_verified=true, do not claim that the source code has been read. - Without repo_inspection_verified=true, do not write README, docs, or package-file conclusions as facts. - Without quick_start_verified=true, do not claim that the Quick Start path has run successfully. ## Doramagic Pitfall Constraints These rules come from Doramagic discovery, validation, or compilation findings. The host AI must treat them as operating constraints, not background notes. ### Constraint 1: Installation risk requires verification - Trigger: Project evidence flags a installation risk.
