Summary
Agent creation often requires toggling multiple middleware components (todo list, human-in-the-loop, prompt caching, etc.) based on runtime conditions. Today every caller must import each factory and manually push them into arrays, which leads to duplicated logic and error-prone configuration handling.
Proposal
BuiltInAgentMiddleware) pluscreateBuiltInAgentMiddlewareso callers can request middleware by name.AgentMiddlewareBuilderthat accepts descriptors{ name, config, when }and returns the assembled array, mirroring the builder used in Mate-X.whenflags and that factory entries require the correct config shape.Motivation
