Agents
Autonomous AI agents that run tasks, use tools, and call APIs on your behalf
Agents are AI assistants that go beyond simple chat. They can autonomously execute multi-step tasks, call external APIs, run code, browse the web, and interact with your business systems — all within a defined scope you control.
What Makes an Agent Different from Chat?
| Feature | Chat | Agent |
|---|---|---|
| Multi-step tasks | Manual | Automatic |
| Tool access | Limited | Full (files, APIs, code) |
| Runs unattended | No | Yes |
| Form-based input | No | Yes |
| Subagent orchestration | No | Yes |
Key Concepts
- System prompt — defines the agent's role, tools, and behavior
- Tools — capabilities the agent can invoke (search, code execution, HTTP requests, integrations)
- Form fields — structured inputs users provide before the agent starts running
- Subagents — agents can delegate subtasks to other specialized agents
- Sessions — each agent run is a tracked session with full audit log
