  fn -> distribute_task_to_agent(agent, task) end,
  policy: :exponential_backoff,
  max_retries: 3
) do
  {:ok, result} -> handle_success(result)
  {:error, reason} -> handle_distribution_failure(reason)
end

# Agent discovery with retry
case Foundation.Services.RetryService.retry_operation(
  fn -> find_available_agents(criteria) end,
  policy: :immediate,
  max_retries: 2
) do
  {:ok, agents} -> coordinate_agents(agents)
  {:error, reason} -> handle_discovery_failure(reason)
end

Task 2.4.2: MonitorAgent ConnectionManager Integration

2. Plan ConnectionManager Integration - Map external endpoints to connection pools
3. Test-Drive Implementation - Write tests for HTTP connections, timeouts, failures
4. Replace Mock Calls - Implement real HTTP calls using Foundation.Services.ConnectionManager
5. Add Circuit Breaker Protection - Use ConnectionManager’s built-in circuit breaker integration

Expected Integrations:

# External health check with connection pooling
case Foundation.Services.ConnectionManager.request(
  :monitoring_pool,
  :get,
  "/health",
  [],
  timeout: 5_000
) do
  {:ok, %{status: 200, body: body}} -> process_health_response(body)
  {:ok, %{status: status}} -> handle_error_status(status)
  {:error, reason} -> handle_connection_failure(reason)
end

# Metric collection with retry and circuit breaker
case Foundation.Services.ConnectionManager.request(
  :metrics_pool,
  :post,
  "/metrics",
  Jason.encode!(metrics),
  headers: [{"content-type", "application/json"}],
  timeout: 10_000
) do
  {:ok, response} -> handle_metrics_success(response)
  {:error, reason} -> handle_metrics_failure(reason)
end

Task 2.4.3: Agent Health Integration Enhancement

Priority: MEDIUM
Files to Modify: All agent files, JidoFoundation.Bridge

Implementation Steps:

1. Review Current Health Integration - Assess existing health check implementations
2. Design Enhanced Health Checks - Custom health checks for each agent type
3. Implement HealthChecker Integration - Full integration with Foundation.ServiceIntegration.HealthChecker
4. Add Health Status Reporting - Detailed health status with degraded state handling
5. Test Health Scenarios - Comprehensive testing of health check scenarios

Expected Enhancements:

# Enhanced agent health check
defmodule JidoSystem.Agents.TaskAgent do
  def health_check(agent_state) do
    cond do
      agent_state.error_count > 10 -> :unhealthy
      agent_state.queue_size > 100 -> :degraded  
      agent_state.last_activity < 60_seconds_ago() -> :degraded
      true -> :healthy
