abstract = {The popularity of multi-paradigm languages is on the rise, enabling developers to select the most appropriate paradigm for each task. While object-oriented (OOP) and functional programming (FP) are commonly combined, other paradigms can also be hybridized. This paper introduces JaKtA, an internal Domain-Specific Language (DSL) designed to support the definition of BDI agents in Kotlin. Our work represents an initial exploration into blending Agent-Oriented Programming (AOP) with other prevalent paradigms, emphasizing the potential benefits of using internal DSLs. We demonstrate, through JaKtA, how this approach facilitates the creation of compact and expressive Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) agents that seamlessly integrate with the host language, its libraries, and tooling.},
