Working with Agentic studio

Understanding agents

Agents are the foundation of automated work in SitecoreAI. They automate routine and repetitive tasks, enabling seamless collaboration between people and AI. Agents can:

Set goals - define objectives and work toward them.
Take initiative - identify opportunities and act independently.
Make decisions - evaluate options and choose the best path forward.
Learn and improve - adapt based on results and feedback.
Coordinate with others - collaborate with you or other agents.

In Agentic Studio, agents function as digital workers digital workers that automate marketing tasks while adhering to defined rules, workflows, and guidelines. This allows teams to focus on strategy and other high-value work.

There are two types of agents in SitecoreAI. Prebuilt agents are designed for common use cases. Custom agents, which include standard agents and workflow agents, can be tailored to your specific business needs. When to use a standard agent or workflow agent depends on the complexity of the AI process and how much human intervention you want.

Note

In the Agentic studio, agents can work independently or together in flexible ways. You can run multiple agents in parallel, chain agents so each step builds on the previous output, and share context and results across agents. This flexibility supports both structured workflows and more open-ended, creative tasks.

Before you start using agents

By default, agents do not understand your organization’s tone of voice, brand guidelines, or business context. Agents rely on configuration and contextual inputs to determine how they behave and what information they use.

Before working with agents in Agentic studio, make sure that you:

From the Settings page, select the tools, skills, schemas, and templates that agents can use consistently across workflows.
Set Signals with your preferences to provide relevant context and insights.
Configure each agent for your specific needs using the appropriate instructions, schemas, templates, and workflow actions.

When you create or edit an agent, these settings determine how it interprets prompts, what information it references, how it formats responses, and what actions it performs.

The Agents page

The Agents page is where you can find, run, and manage agents available in SitecoreAI. To access it, on the navigation menu, click Agentic and then, in the left sidebar, click Agents.

The Agents page displays all available agents, including prebuilt agents, agents created or duplicated by users, and agents shared with you by other users.

On this page, you can:

Browse by type - view all available agents. You can filter agents and switch between different views.
Browse by category - view agents based on how they are created or shared:
- My agents - agents you created and can make accessible to others.
- Shared - agents others made available to you.
Run agents - open an agent by clicking on its card. This takes you to a page where you create a new space to run the agent.

Running an agent generates an artifact that you can review, refine, compare, export, or transform. See Manage an artifact for more details.
Manage agents based on permissions - your available actions depend on your role in Agentic studio and whether you have a Builder license. Depending on your permissions, you can:
- Create a custom standard agent or workflow agent.
- Duplicate an existing agent for customization.
- Export or import the agent's JSON file.
- Delete a custom agent you created.
- Edit agent configuration.
- Manage agent visibility to control who can view or use them.
