Add OpenAI Agents SDK tool integration for AI agents

[Copilot]

AI agents were instantiated with the OpenAI Agents SDK but had no tools parameter, preventing backend operations despite 26+ available BackendTools methods.

Changes

New file: utils/tools.js

• 16 tool definitions wrapping BackendTools API:
  • Journal operations (create, get, update, search, tag management)
  • Memory/RAG operations (create, search, filter by type, stats)
  • Chat history access
• Zod schemas with .optional().nullable() for OpenAI API compatibility
• Arrays for tags, enums for memory types

Modified: utils/agents.js

• Added tools parameter to all 9 Agent constructors
• Agent-specific tool assignments based on role:
  • Supervisor (5): content creation, basic search
  • Retrieval (8): comprehensive search across all data sources
  • Memory (8): full CRUD on memory system
  • Tags (4): tag management + journal access
  • Others (3-4 each): role-appropriate subset

Added: verification tests

• verify_tools.js: validates tool counts per agent
• test_tool_integration.js: integration test template

Example Usage

import { run } from '@openai/agents';
import { tags_agent } from './utils/agents.js';

// Agent now automatically calls tools when LLM decides they're needed
const result = await run(tags_agent, "Tag my Python journal entries");
// Executes: get_journal_history() → add_tags(journalId, ["python", "programming"])

Verification

• All 9 agents load with correct tool counts (42 total configurations)
• CodeQL: 0 vulnerabilities

Original prompt

the tools for ai agents are not working. fix it
