Agent Development & Runtime

Build and orchestrate agents so they can keep working in real operations.

Build, test, publish, and reuse agents and skills; orchestrate models, context, workflows, and tools; and manage execution state, human intervention, and enterprise work surfaces.

How It Works

Turn enterprise methods and experience into reusable intelligence.

Enterprises can build agents and skills with their own context, rules, tools, and accountability boundaries so professional capabilities can be invoked, validated, and continually improved.

01

Build, test, and release agents

Within organization and workspace boundaries, define goals, inputs and outputs, available tools, operating rules, and human accountability while preserving version and release state.

02

Build skills

Package professional methods, decision rules, and tool use as reusable capabilities.

03

Orchestrate workflows

Organize steps, dependencies, branches, and collaboration among people, agents, and systems around a business objective.

04

Connect channels

Bring agents into existing collaboration and business surfaces to receive work, share progress, request approval, and deliver outcomes.

Runtime Mechanism · Agentic Runtime

From one trigger to a state that can keep running.

The runtime assembles the models, context, agents, skills, and tools required for the task, manages execution state and human intervention, and preserves what is needed to continue.

01

Sense signals

Receive human instructions, system events, business changes, or predefined triggers.

02

Understand and plan

Read current context and establish the objective, constraints, and next action.

03

Execute and collaborate

Invoke models, agents, skills, tools, and enterprise systems, bringing people in when needed.

04

Record and continue

Preserve calls, state, and human judgment, then continue, await new signals, or stop according to conditions.

Enterprise Value

Go beyond answering questions to move complete work forward.

01

Workflow orchestration

Organize steps, dependencies, and branches so people, agents, and systems work toward the same objective.

02

Enterprise work surfaces

Start work, follow progress, and receive outcomes through the collaboration and business applications teams already use.

03

Human collaboration

Pause and bring in the right person when professional judgment, authorization, or accountability is required.

Validation & Guardrails

Reliable runtime requires explicit state, failure, and stopping semantics.

Agents need more than tool access. They must know where state is preserved, how failure is handled, which actions can be retried safely, and when work must stop and return to people.

How We Measure

01

Task completion

02

Workflow execution success

03

Human-escalation accuracy

04

State recovery success

Boundaries & Guardrails

01

State and checkpoints

Preserve goals, inputs, intermediate outcomes, and external-system state at consequential steps so execution can resume correctly.

02

Failure and recovery

Separate safely repeatable actions from external effects that require compensation to avoid new risk from duplicate execution.

03

Authorization and stops

Set human approval, pause, and stop conditions for low-confidence, value-laden, and consequential actions.

Technical Deep Dive

Long-Horizon Agent Runtime

The Long-Horizon Agent Runtime is the specialized mechanism within agent development and runtime for ongoing business accountability, adding proactive triggers, durable goals, dynamic plans, cross-process state, recovery and retry, and outcome-driven replanning.

Technical questions

Understand the mechanism, boundaries, and production requirements.

01

What does agent development and runtime include?

It covers building, testing, publishing, and reusing agents and skills, plus orchestrating models, context, workflows, and tools. Runtime mechanisms also manage execution state, permissions, human intervention, failure recovery, and enterprise work surfaces.

02

Why are development and runtime treated as one complete capability?

Enterprise agents cannot be separated from production once built. The same task definitions, skills, permissions, and evaluations must carry from development through release and operation, while production failures and business outcomes must inform subsequent improvement.

03

How does it relate to the Long-Horizon Agent Runtime?

Agent development and runtime covers general enterprise-agent development and production operation. The Long-Horizon Agent Runtime is a deeper technical mechanism for enduring business accountability, adding proactive triggers, durable goals, dynamic plans, cross-process state, recovery and retry, and outcome-driven replanning.
