user_profile_agentic.py
"""
User Profile: Agentic Mode
==========================
User Profile captures structured profile fields about users:
- Name and preferred name
- Custom profile fields (when using extended schemas)
AGENTIC mode gives the agent explicit tools to update profile fields.
The agent decides when to store information - you can see the tool calls.
Compare with: 1a_user_profile_always.py for automatic extraction.
See also: 2b_user_memory_agentic.py for unstructured observations.
