Try out new mech-client release, and re-evaluate suitability for 'Marketplace of Tools'

See release https://github.com/valory-xyz/mech-client/releases/tag/v0.2.16, which contains valory-xyz/mech-client#49

Can we now create an agent that starts with no skills, and acquires them at run-time? (the dream 🙌 )

Once evaluated, update the nevermined/olas comparison: https://www.notion.so/gnosischain/Nevermined-vs-Olas-Mech-4bbe7f4f89cd4cbf9f6226b236127e8c

Can we now create an agent that starts with no skills, and acquires them at run-time? (the dream 🙌 )

We can start those, but currently all Olas-mechs (accessible via mech-client) are of the type prompt -> response, which we can also already accomplish directly via direct calls to OpenAI (no need to go through mech).
Once the more useful mechs (with more complex logic) become available via mech-client, check out this branch (https://github.com/gnosis/prediction-market-agent/commits/gabriel/olas-marketplace-using-io-schema/) and continue the work. Until then, this doesn't have high priority (so marking this as won't do, until other mech tools (e.g. buyTokens on Omen) become available).

Also worth noting that calling the mechs in the general agent adds [30s,120s] latency (from own experiments) to the function calling flow.
