Agentic Data Plane

Build Agents

Agents are the workloads that call LLMs and tools through the Agentic Data Plane. Start with how agents work, then create a declarative agent, set up an agent you host yourself, and apply architecture and system-prompt best practices.

  • How Agents Work

    Learn how Agentic Data Plane agents use a declarative approach backed by a broad library of prebuilt tools and integrations to replace custom agent code.

  • Understand Agent Concepts

    Understand how declaratively configured agents execute reasoning loops, manage context, invoke tools, and handle errors.

  • Connect Agents with A2A

    The A2A protocol enables agents to discover and call each other across platforms. Learn how agent cards, authentication, and protocol versioning work in Agentic Data Plane.

  • Choose an Agent Architecture

    Design maintainable agent systems with single-agent and multi-agent patterns based on domain complexity.

  • Write Effective System Prompts

    Write system prompts that produce reliable, predictable agent behavior through clear constraints and tool guidance.

  • Create an Agent

    Configure an Agentic Data Plane agent declaratively through the create form. No Python or JavaScript code required.

  • Draw Charts from an Agent

    Make an agent render interactive charts in the Inspector by emitting a chart code block that holds a Chart.js configuration.

  • Set Up a Self-Managed Agent

    Register a self-managed agent, issue it a client credential, and route its LLM and tool calls through the AI Gateway so spend, traces, and transcripts attribute back to the agent.

  • Trigger Agents from External Channels

    Triggers connect a deployed agent to the outside world, so people and systems can invoke it without calling its API directly.
