9# HackerNews agent
10news_agent = Agent(
11    name="News Agent",
12    role="Search HackerNews for tech news",
13    model=OpenAIResponses(id="gpt-5.2"),
14    tools=[HackerNewsTools()],
15    instructions=[
16        "Find the latest tech news and discussions",
17    ],
18)
19
20# Finance agent
21finance_agent = Agent(
22    name="Finance Agent",
23    role="Get stock prices and financial data",
24    model=OpenAIResponses(id="gpt-5.2"),
25    tools=[YFinanceTools()],
26    instructions=[

31# Create the research team
32research_team = Team(
33    name="Research Team",
34    model=OpenAIResponses(id="gpt-5.2"),
35    members=[
36        news_agent,

38    ],
39    markdown=True,
