Agents

In Agents24, an agent is not just a prompt. It is a runnable graph with explicit nodes, edges, inputs, and output behavior.

What matters first

  • drafts can be incomplete and still saved
  • runnability is decided at compile and execution time, not by forcing every draft to be perfect
  • runtime values come from workflow input, state, or node outputs

Practical reading of the model

For the first implementation pass, think in this order:

  1. What enters the run?
  2. What decisions does the graph make?
  3. What outside capabilities can it call?
  4. What leaves the run?

What to avoid in the first build

  • branching-heavy graphs
  • broad state contracts
  • multiple tools with overlapping responsibility
  • large knowledge scopes you cannot validate manually
