Agents Overview
Agents are the core of Neural Factory. Each agent is a configured AI assistant with a specific purpose, knowledge, and set of tools — a specialized coworker for a particular domain.
What defines an agent
Every agent is configured with:- Name and description — Identifies the agent to users
- System prompt — Instructions that define behavior, tone, and expertise
- AI model — The underlying language model (GPT-4o, GPT-4.1, Claude, etc.)
- Knowledge bases — Document collections the agent can search
- Tools — Capabilities like web search, code execution, or external integrations
- Access control — Which users or groups can interact with the agent
How agents work
When a user sends a message, the agent:- Reads the context — Previous messages, system prompt, and any attached files
- Reasons about the task — Determines what information or actions are needed
- Uses tools if needed — Searches knowledge bases, executes code, calls APIs
- Generates a response — Produces an answer with citations from retrieved sources
Agent types
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Standard agent | Handles requests directly using its tools and knowledge |
| Orchestrator | A multi-agent setup where a lead agent delegates to specialized subagents |
