How I'm going to build an AI Agent API Service (Weird bird)

all right this is my daily update for my all right this is my daily update for my all right this is my daily update for my build and public log January 30th 2025 I can’t believe the month is almost 2025 I can’t believe the month is almost 2025 I can’t believe the month is almost over it flew by feels feels like it’s over it flew by feels feels like it’s over it flew by feels feels like it’s been three been three been three months good I have a good update for months good I have a good update for months good I have a good update for today I today I today I uh I talked yesterday about how I’m uh I talked yesterday about how I’m uh I talked yesterday about how I’m going going going to and not just build AI agents in like to and not just build AI agents in like to and not just build AI agents in like a frame work for building a frame work for building a frame work for building agents but instead I’m going to actually agents but instead I’m going to actually agents but instead I’m going to actually uh build agents on a service that I’m uh build agents on a service that I’m uh build agents on a service that I’m going to provide that I’m going to build going to provide that I’m going to build going to provide that I’m going to build and provide to run said agents my and provide to run said agents my and provide to run said agents my intention before like I said yesterday intention before like I said yesterday intention before like I said yesterday was to build agents and just you you pay was to build agents and just you you pay was to build agents and just you you pay and you get the code but now instead I’m and you get the code but now instead I’m and you get the code but now instead I’m going to like keep that code like going to like keep that code like going to like keep that code like obviously on the server and you’re going obviously on the server and you’re going obviously on the server and you’re going to make API for now at the beginning to make API for now at the beginning to make API for now at the beginning you’re going to make API requests or you’re going to make API requests or you’re going to make API requests or calls to the API to run the agent you calls to the API to run the agent you calls to the API to run the agent you want and then you’re going to get a want and then you’re going to get a want and then you’re going to get a response so what what have I done the response so what what have I done the response so what what have I done the last 24 hours or so I thought a lot last 24 hours or so I thought a lot last 24 hours or so I thought a lot about the architecture and how I how I about the architecture and how I how I about the architecture and how I how I want to build this um I already started want to build this um I already started want to build this um I already started building pieces of this so so I came up building pieces of this so so I came up building pieces of this so so I came up with this diagram this is uh getting my with this diagram this is uh getting my with this diagram this is uh getting my vision down onto quote unquote paper um so I’ll walk through this in a second um so I’ll walk through this in a second um so I’ll walk through this in a second but first I want to take a step back and but first I want to take a step back and but first I want to take a step back and talk about number one this is a lot this talk about number one this is a lot this talk about number one this is a lot this is going to take a while to get to I is going to take a while to get to I is going to take a while to get to I think I can build a basic version pretty think I can build a basic version pretty think I can build a basic version pretty quickly but like real basic quickly but like real basic quickly but like real basic um when it comes to architecture now let um when it comes to architecture now let um when it comes to architecture now let me let me be very clear I’m not a quote me let me be very clear I’m not a quote me let me be very clear I’m not a quote unquote AR protect I am just a senior unquote AR protect I am just a senior unquote AR protect I am just a senior software engineer software engineer software engineer who’s who’s been around the block and who’s who’s been around the block and who’s who’s been around the block and trying to do things as best as possible trying to do things as best as possible trying to do things as best as possible okay so if you really really really okay so if you really really really okay so if you really really really want deep system design knowledge want deep system design knowledge want deep system design knowledge probably go probably go probably go to a YouTube channel where you know to a YouTube channel where you know to a YouTube channel where you know that’s that’s what they do because there that’s that’s what they do because there that’s that’s what they do because there are some excellent excellent ones out are some excellent excellent ones out are some excellent excellent ones out there um I follow along uh with a few there um I follow along uh with a few there um I follow along uh with a few people who have excellent channels for people who have excellent channels for people who have excellent channels for this stuff but I I know well enough when this stuff but I I know well enough when this stuff but I I know well enough when things are being done poorly so let’s things are being done poorly so let’s things are being done poorly so let’s put it that way so here is uh a great put it that way so here is uh a great put it that way so here is uh a great great repo I found that explains in this great repo I found that explains in this great repo I found that explains in this is a per this is exactly what I mean go is a per this is exactly what I mean go is a per this is exactly what I mean go find an if you want to learn more about find an if you want to learn more about find an if you want to learn more about this stuff go find the experts who who this stuff go find the experts who who this stuff go find the experts who who this is their thing and I’m not going to this is their thing and I’m not going to this is their thing and I’m not going to go deep into this document but I will go deep into this document but I will go deep into this document but I will share it in the in the description below share it in the in the description below share it in the in the description below but this is the perfect example of uh but this is the perfect example of uh but this is the perfect example of uh doing things in my opinion the right way doing things in my opinion the right way doing things in my opinion the right way so this this is uh again this will be so this this is uh again this will be so this this is uh again this will be like a quick quick review and summary of like a quick quick review and summary of like a quick quick review and summary of this but uh this is best practices for this but uh this is best practices for this but uh this is best practices for building modern architecture for the for building modern architecture for the for building modern architecture for the for how the front end should talk to the how the front end should talk to the how the front end should talk to the back end so system design back end so system design back end so system design patterns patterns patterns uh best practices tools and guidelines uh best practices tools and guidelines uh best practices tools and guidelines for backend development so I I love that for backend development so I I love that for backend development so I I love that this kind of goes over how I approach this kind of goes over how I approach this kind of goes over how I approach architecture um this whole repo and and architecture um this whole repo and and architecture um this whole repo and and document this read me this deserves its document this read me this deserves its document this read me this deserves its own video like like a big long video too own video like like a big long video too own video like like a big long video too um but I highly if you’re into if you’re um but I highly if you’re into if you’re um but I highly if you’re into if you’re into uh software engineering if you are into uh software engineering if you are into uh software engineering if you are into you know system design architecture into you know system design architecture into you know system design architecture of how to build complex systems I I of how to build complex systems I I of how to build complex systems I I recommend giving this a recommend giving this a recommend giving this a read um but he calls it domain driven uh read um but he calls it domain driven uh read um but he calls it domain driven uh hexagon there’s a great great graphic hexagon there’s a great great graphic hexagon there’s a great great graphic here um now I’m building a very simple here um now I’m building a very simple here um now I’m building a very simple app a app a app a backend there’ll be a friend end too I’m backend there’ll be a friend end too I’m backend there’ll be a friend end too I’m building a very simple app at first but building a very simple app at first but building a very simple app at first but it probably will get complex if I’m even it probably will get complex if I’m even it probably will get complex if I’m even remotely successful with this so remotely successful with this so remotely successful with this so this this this is said far better than I could say it is said far better than I could say it is said far better than I could say it here to you of of how I Envision uh here to you of of how I Envision uh here to you of of how I Envision uh building building a a secure robust building building a a secure robust building building a a secure robust scalable system um so I’m just going to scalable system um so I’m just going to scalable system um so I’m just going to point out a few things that that caught point out a few things that that caught point out a few things that that caught my eye that if you take anything from my eye that if you take anything from my eye that if you take anything from anything from the videos that I’m making anything from the videos that I’m making anything from the videos that I’m making please please please please listen to please please please please listen to please please please please listen to what I’m about to say right here what I’m about to say right here what I’m about to say right here a a a few advices to avoid coupling this this few advices to avoid coupling this this few advices to avoid coupling this this really caught my eye when I I was going really caught my eye when I I was going really caught my eye when I I was going through this through this through this document try not to create dependencies document try not to create dependencies document try not to create dependencies between modules or use cases instead between modules or use cases instead between modules or use cases instead move shared logic into a separate files move shared logic into a separate files move

all public please please please I wish all software did that alternatively modals software did that alternatively modals software did that alternatively modals can communicate with each other by using can communicate with each other by using can communicate with each other by using messages for example you can send messages for example you can send messages for example you can send commands using a commands bus or commands using a commands bus or commands using a commands bus or subscribe to events that other modules subscribe to events that other modules subscribe to events that other modules admit admit admit you got to be careful with that one you got to be careful with that one you got to be careful with that one though I I wish like I said all software though I I wish like I said all software though I I wish like I said all software was written that way I have worked that was written that way I have worked that was written that way I have worked that many places that had large code bases many places that had large code bases many places that had large code bases that did not do that and it does not go that did not do that and it does not go that did not do that and it does not go well and he talks about this about uh well and he talks about this about uh well and he talks about this about uh building spaghetti code really really building spaghetti code really really building spaghetti code really really good stuff here um good stuff here um good stuff here um so with with this in mind and again I so with with this in mind and again I so with with this in mind and again I I’ll I’ll share this in the description I’ll I’ll share this in the description I’ll I’ll share this in the description this is my attempt at at trying to this is my attempt at at trying to this is my attempt at at trying to architect architect architect uh a simple web app that handles a lot uh a simple web app that handles a lot uh a simple web app that handles a lot of long running asynchronous tasks for of long running asynchronous tasks for of long running asynchronous tasks for AI AI AI agents I I love starting simple first agents I I love starting simple first agents I I love starting simple first and uh ignore I it’s so easy to um to and uh ignore I it’s so easy to um to and uh ignore I it’s so easy to um to think what if there’s like you know think what if there’s

the temptation start Simple Start small and temptation start Simple Start small and temptation start Simple Start small and buil but make the right architectural buil but make the right architectural buil but make the right architectural decisions up front don’t like what I decisions up front don’t like what I decisions up front don’t like what I just pointed out about just pointed out about just pointed out about modules you you got to kind modules you you got to kind modules you you got to kind of build things correctly from the of build things correctly from the of build things correctly from the beginning without the premature beginning without the premature beginning without the premature optimizations you you can’t just you optimizations you you can’t just you optimizations you you can’t just you know hack together whatever garbage so know hack together whatever garbage so know hack together whatever garbage so let’s go over this somebody makes a let’s go over this somebody makes a let’s go over this somebody makes a request hey go run go run this uh this request hey go run go run this uh this request hey go run go run this uh this agent the one I’ve been building is agent the one I’ve been building is agent the one I’ve been building is scheduling events that’s basically done scheduling events that’s basically done scheduling events that’s basically done by the way you know a sentence so uh the by the way you know a sentence so uh the by the way you know a sentence so uh the user saying hey schedule a meeting uh user saying hey schedule a meeting uh user saying hey schedule a meeting uh tomorrow at 3 p.m. with tomorrow at 3 p.m. with tomorrow at 3 p.m. with Sally okay so this will go Sally okay so this will go Sally okay so this will go to um API to um API to um API layer there’ll be validation layer there’ll be validation layer there’ll be validation um ideally there is strict schema um ideally there is strict schema um ideally there is strict schema validation so if somebody sends like validation so if somebody sends like validation so if somebody sends like some something toally weird and not some something toally weird and not some something toally weird and not right obviously you’ll return uh an right obviously you’ll return uh an right obviously you’ll return uh an immediate uh response saying hey immediate uh response saying hey immediate uh response saying hey something you know something isn’t right something you know something isn’t right something you know something isn’t right with appropriate errors so you need to with appropriate errors so you need to with appropriate errors so you need to validate you know basically the schema validate you know basically the schema validate you know basically the schema and make sure that oh yeah this looks and make sure that oh yeah this looks and make sure that oh yeah this looks like a legit request then you validate like a legit request then you validate like a legit request then you validate the uh the API key so you obviously need the uh the API key so you obviously need the uh the API key so you obviously need an API key validate and find that user an API key validate and find that user an API key validate and find that user information is it correct like are they information is it correct like are they information is it correct like are they are they a legit user uh if so do they are they a legit user uh if so do they are they a legit user uh if so do they do they have credits to to do this or do they have credits to to do this or do they have credits to to do this or you know is their account valid you know you know is their account valid you know you know is their account valid you know all all that BAS basic simple validation all all that BAS basic simple validation all all that BAS basic simple validation that you can that you can that you can imagine then it gets imagine then it gets imagine then it gets to uh this part to uh this part to uh this part where it creates a queue so think about where it creates a queue so think about where it creates a queue so think about it there is these long running task so it there is these long running task so it there is these long running task so the one of the one of the weird things the one of the one of the weird things the one of the one of the weird things about the AI stuff is typically when you about the AI stuff is typically when you about the AI stuff is typically when you make an API call it’s like really fast make an API call it’s like really fast make an API call it’s like really fast it’s like give me this data yeah sure oh it’s like give me this data yeah sure oh it’s like give me this data yeah sure oh okay here’s a bunch of data uh and then okay here’s a bunch of data uh and then okay here’s a bunch of data uh and then you have fancy stuff like graphql where you have fancy stuff like graphql where you have fancy stuff like graphql where you you you explicitly say like I want this data I explicitly say like I want this data I explicitly say like I want this data I don’t want all the data I like don’t want all the data I like don’t want all the data I like selectively want you to to to you know selectively want you to to to you know selectively want you to to to you know crunch the data on the back end and crunch the data on the back end and crunch the data on the back end and return only this piece and traditionally return only this piece and traditionally return only this piece and traditionally uh API calls were fast like maybe a slow uh API calls were fast like maybe a slow uh API calls were fast like maybe a slow backend would be like 15 seconds or backend would be like 15 seconds or backend would be like 15 seconds or something crazy but not the time that something crazy but not the time that something crazy but not the time that you see with llms now like the the it’s you see with llms now like the the it’s you see with llms now like the the it’s Insanity a lot of software doesn’t it Insanity a lot of software doesn’t it Insanity a lot of software doesn’t it like the like deep seek R1 for for like the like deep seek R1 for for like the like deep seek R1 for for example even in cursor which is built to example even in cursor which is built to example even in cursor which is built to use llms and make those calls just times use llms and make those calls just times use llms and make those calls just times out because it’s so slow no software is out because it’s so slow no software is out because it’s so slow no software is built to wait minutes like a lot of built to wait minutes like a lot of built to wait minutes like a lot of software is not used to API calls taking software is not used to API calls taking software is not used to API calls taking so drastically long so you have to cue so drastically long so you have to cue so drastically long so you have to cue things all the requests come in and you things all the requests come in and you things all the requests come in and you got to put them in a Quee because I mean got to put them in a Quee because I mean got to put them in a Quee because I mean it’s just everything will time out you it’s just everything will time out you it’s just everything will time out you can’t just like Stand By and wait you can’t just like Stand By and wait you can’t just like Stand By and wait you know one minute for the response no no know one minute for the response no no know one minute for the response no no no no it doesn’t work that way restful no no it doesn’t work that way restful no no it doesn’t work that way restful apis uh you can’t do it that way I’ll apis uh you can’t do it that way I’ll apis uh you can’t do it that way I’ll get to that though so a job is get to that though so a job is get to that though so a job is created uh it goes obviously you got to created uh it goes obviously you got to created uh it goes obviously you got to record that into the database because record that into the database because record that into the database because you know you need there’s this idea of a you know you need there’s this idea of a you know you need there’s this idea of a Quee and then you have workers that work Quee and then you have workers that work Quee and then you have workers that work in parallel watches that Quee and then in parallel watches that Quee and then in parallel watches that Quee and then execute and it runs the runs the task so execute and it runs the runs the task so execute and it runs the runs the task so obviously go into the database and then obviously go into the database and then obviously go into the database and then uh so I’m going to I’m going to try to uh so I’m going to I’m going to try to uh so I’m going to I’m going to try to use what’s called trigger dodev this is use what’s called trigger dodev this is use what’s called trigger dodev this is a pretty cool I I I made a video talking a pretty cool I I I made a video talking a pretty cool I I I made a video talking about this in another video this is a about this in another video this is a about this in another video this is a pretty cool Library I don’t know how to pretty cool Library I don’t know how to pretty cool Library I don’t know how to call it it’s kind of their own platform call it it’s kind of their own platform call it it’s kind of their own platform where they run them for you but I want where they run them for you but I want where they run them for you but I want to run it myself because I I think uh to run it myself because I I think uh to run it myself because I I think uh that could get pretty pricey and I just that could get pretty pricey and I just that could get pretty pricey and I just want to control the whole stack for now want to control the whole stack for now want to control the whole stack for now so it adds the job to trigger. death and so it adds the job to trigger. death and so it adds the job to trigger. death and then that goes and runs the agent now then that goes and runs the agent now then that goes and runs the agent now this agent who knows how long it’s going this agent who knows how long it’s going this agent who knows how long it’s going to take it could be really fast and take to take it could be really fast and take to take it could be really fast and take like three seconds or it could take 30 like three seconds or it could take 30 like three seconds or it could take 30 minutes who knows like you that I’m minutes who knows like you that I’m minutes who knows like you that I’m building this to be flexible for you building this to be flexible for you building this to be flexible for you know long long long running agents where

couple times this hey I had to retry a couple times this hey I had to retry a couple times something went wrong but I got the something went wrong but I got the something went wrong but I got the solution and think about like I said solution and think about like I said solution and think about like I said what if this is a task that takes 5 what if this is a task that takes 5 what if this is a task that takes 5 minutes you don’t want to sit around minutes you don’t want to sit around minutes you don’t want to sit around it’s better just to uh have it in and it’s better just to uh have it in and it’s better just to uh have it in and out so via a web hook so you’ll be able out so via a web hook so you’ll be able out so via a web hook so you’ll be able to pass in a web hook with your request to pass in a web hook with your request to pass in a web hook with your request saying on success if this agent is saying on success if this agent is saying on success if this agent is successful send that data back here successful send that data back here successful send that data back here okay and if it fails tell me here as okay and if it fails tell me here as okay and if it fails tell me here as well this is very powerful and very well this is very powerful and very well this is very powerful and very common now for uh really complex AI common now for uh really complex AI common now for uh really complex AI workflows tools like nadn rely heavily workflows tools like nadn rely heavily workflows tools like nadn rely heavily on that I talk about that tool lot uh on that I talk about that tool lot uh on that I talk about that tool lot uh that’s all web hooks are just passing that’s all web hooks are just passing that’s all web hooks are just passing around data from one thing to another around data from one thing to another around data from one thing to another via web hooks so Boom the data and the via web hooks so Boom the data and the via web hooks so Boom the data and the response from the agent goes back to the response from the agent goes back to the response from the agent goes back to the client who’s sitting there waiting for client who’s sitting there waiting for client who’s sitting there waiting for the the the inbound or inbound or inbound or alternatively you will get a response so alternatively you will get a response so alternatively you will get a response so when you make that call when that call when you make that call when that call when you make that call when that call comes in you immediately will get a comes in you immediately will get a comes in you immediately will get a response back saying all right you’re response back saying all right you’re response back saying all right you’re you’re we got your you’re we got your you’re we got your request you’ll be able to pull that so request you’ll be able to pull that so request you’ll be able to pull that so let’s say you’re let’s say you you want let’s say you’re let’s say you you want let’s say you’re let’s say you you want to not just wait for the data to come to not just wait for the data to come to not just wait for the data to come you pull you pull you pull and okay here’s your ID go pull and wait and okay here’s your ID go pull and wait and okay here’s your ID go pull and wait for the data there and when the data is for the data there and when the data is for the data there and when the data is finally available if there’s no web hook finally available if there’s no web hook finally available if there’s no web hook or maybe you are doing both send the or maybe you are doing both send the or maybe you are doing both send the data to the web hook and send the data data to the web hook and send the data data to the web hook and send the data back to that back to that back to that polling that’s it folks that’s I I know polling that’s it folks that’s I I know polling that’s it folks that’s I I know that might be be very
