public abstract class BasePlugin
extends Object
implements Plugin

Base class for creating plugins.

Plugins provide a structured way to intercept and modify agent, tool, and LLM behaviors at critical execution points in a callback manner. While agent callbacks apply to a particular agent, plugins applies globally to all agents added in the runner. Plugins are best used for adding custom behaviors like logging, monitoring, caching, or modifying requests and responses at key stages.

A plugin can implement one or more methods of callbacks, but should not implement the same method of callback for multiple times.
