Migrating AI Agents: A Systematic Approach to Cross-Platform Architecture

How systematic methodology and architectural understanding enabled the successful migration of 12 specialized AI agents between platforms, creating reusable patterns for future migrations

The Migration Challenge

Migrating AI agents between platforms isn't just a technical exercise—it's an architectural transformation. When you port agents from one system to another, you're not simply copying code; you're translating between different philosophies of agent interaction, tool management, and capability expression.

Installing Miniforge3 on a GNS Windows machine

This guide will show you how to install and configure Miniforge on a GNS Windows PC. Before you jump into the install there are a few things you should understand

This a "user" install. No adminstator privileges are required. Miniforge will be installed under your user profile, so other users of a given PC wil not have access to your Miniforge installation.
You are responsible for maintaining all aspects of your Miniforge installation.
Miniforge is not available via Software Centre and is not officially supported by GNS IT. Nevertheless, IT know all about Miniforge and endorse your use of it.
If you have any problems you should first try asking for help from GNS Python Users on Microsoft Teams. IT Support may be able to help, but t

Requirements

First you need to install pandoc.

I used brew install pandoc to install via Homebrew since I'm on a mac.

Writing your presentation

Make a slides.md for your slides (or name it whatever you want!). I put images in an /images/ folder. You can see how links and images and all of that work from this sample:

	[I'm an inline-style link](https://www.somewebsite.com)

	[I'm an inline-style link with title](https://www.somewebsite.com "somewebsite's Homepage")

	[I'm a reference-style link][Arbitrary case-insensitive reference text]

	[I'm a relative reference to a repository file](../blob/master/LICENSE)

	[You can use numbers for reference-style link definitions][1]

	// PROBLEM: in Google Documents, sometimes you want numbered headings, but the UI makes you a new list each time.
	// INSIGHT: it's possible, but you have to script it.
	// SOLUTION: this script adds OL+LI to Hs, all using the same listID
	// DOWNLOAD: get the latest version of this gist from https://gist.github.com/mengwong/f597d064366f555b5f4e
	// INSTALL: Go to Tools / Editor. Paste this in. Hit save. You can run it by pressing the "play" button, or from the Add-Ons menu.
	//
	// USAGE:
	// REQUIRED: Define all your headings as actual headings and not just big bold Normal. Come on, people, learn to use paragraph styles already.
	// OPTIONAL: Manually make the first H1 in the document a numbered list. We'll use that as a reference heading for all the others.
	// OPTIONAL: Manually set the list style to "Decimal Outline" (the style that has 1.1.2 type numbering) ... I like this best.
