Managing Agents
What are agents?
Section titled “What are agents?”Agents are AI-powered copilots that execute tasks on behalf of your organization. Each agent combines a model, tools, an operating protocol, and access to shared organizational knowledge so it can answer questions, route work, and automate repeatable flows.
Key characteristics:
- Chat or Workflow mode — chat agents are optimized for conversations, while workflow agents are optimized for structured execution.
- Operating protocols — multi-phase workflows that guide how an agent should behave.
- Tools and knowledge access — agents can use assigned tools and retrieve relevant context from the platform’s shared memory.
Agent list view
Section titled “Agent list view”Navigate to Admin > Agents to see every agent in your organization. From the list you can:
- Filter agents by type (

- Sort by creation date, last update, or name.
- Click any row to open the agent detail view for editing.
