Pull Request Overview
This PR adds support for a prompt parameter to GuardrailAgent to make it a 1:1 drop-in replacement for the Agents SDK. Previously, GuardrailAgent required an instructions parameter, but the Agents SDK allows using a prompt parameter instead.
- Added
_resolve_agent_instructionshelper function to derive instructions from either explicit instructions or prompt parameters - Modified
GuardrailAgent.__new__to accept optionalinstructionsand handlepromptparameter viaagent_kwargs - Added validation to ensure either
instructionsorpromptis provided during initialization

The validation logic is incorrect. The condition should check if resolved_instructions is None, not both resolved_instructions is None and prompt_arg is None. If a prompt is provided but doesn't yield valid instructions (e.g., an object without the expected attributes), the agent should still fail to initialize.

This module setup code should be moved to a test fixture or conftest.py rather than being placed at module level. Module-level sys.modules manipulation can cause issues with test isolation and make debugging more difficult.

Via bug report:
One minor thing, it seems like your Guardrail Agent isn't a 1:1 drop in for the Agents SDK, using a remote prompt gives me an error.
