Agent Runtimes

Ship live agent-backed product runtimes.

Let humans or agents deploy always-available agent systems for APIs, embedded assistants, operational copilots, and workflow services that keep project context connected.

Start now
Computer Agents agent runtime resource
Live agent systems

Deploy long-lived agent-backed services that stay available beyond a single thread or chat session.

Product endpoints

Expose agent APIs, embedded assistants, operational copilots, and workflow runtimes as product surfaces.

Connected workspace

Bind runtimes to web apps, functions, databases, auth modules, secrets, and project context.

Operational control

Inspect deployments, logs, analytics, files, runtime config, and bindings from one resource surface.

Pricing

Agent runtimes are the live product surface for long-running agent systems, embedded copilots, and agent APIs.

Normal computer usage applies

The computer that prepares source files or project context keeps its own runtime pricing.

Connected resources
Normal resource usage applies

Web apps, functions, databases, auth modules, and secrets keep their own pricing model.

SDK functionality

The JavaScript and Python SDKs expose the full agent runtime lifecycle: creation, deployment, rollback, invocation, analytics, logs, bindings, files, context, runtime config, and secrets.

SDK functionality
LifecycleCreate, list, get, update, and delete the resource through the product manager or the generic resources manager.
DeploymentsDeploy, list deployment history, and roll back to a previous deployment from JavaScript or Python.
InvocationInvoke live routes directly from the SDK for health checks, smoke tests, backend calls, and CI workflows.
OperationsRead analytics, request logs, runtime logs, runtime config, and deployed runtime state from one resource surface.
BindingsList, create, update, and remove bindings to databases, auth modules, secrets, web apps, functions, and runtimes.
FilesList, read, write, upload, download, and delete files that belong to the deployed resource.
SecretsList, create, read, update, and delete secrets scoped to the resource without checking values into source files.

How to set it up

Start from the workflow that fits the product: script runtime infrastructure with the SDK, operate directly in Develop, or ask an agent to build and ship the service.

Via SDK

Create, deploy, invoke, inspect, bind, and update agent runtimes from JavaScript or Python.

On the platform

Create an Agent Runtime resource in Develop, choose the source computer and folder, connect dependencies, and deploy.

By agent

Ask a project agent to build the runtime, connect project resources, deploy it, and validate the live behavior.

How to deploy

A deployment turns runtime source in a computer or project workspace into a live agent-backed service endpoint.

How to deploy
Define the runtime roleDecide whether the runtime is an embedded assistant, agent API, operational copilot, or workflow service.
Prepare source filesCreate the runtime entrypoint, request contract, health route, and any local project instructions it needs.
Create the resourcePoint the runtime at a source computer, source folder, and nodejs22 runtime.
Bind dependenciesAttach databases, auth modules, secrets, web apps, functions, and project resources the runtime needs.
Deploy and verifyDeploy the runtime, run a health check, invoke a representative payload, and document the live endpoint.

How to manage

Agent runtimes are live product surfaces. Keep logs, analytics, bindings, context, runtime configuration, and source files visible as the system evolves.

How to manage
AnalyticsTrack requests, active usage, errors, latency, and runtime behavior over time.
LogsUse request and runtime logs to debug prompt inputs, tool calls, dependency failures, and external APIs.
Runtime stateInspect runtime configuration, context, source files, and deployed state when agents modify behavior.
BindingsReview connected databases, auth modules, secrets, functions, and web apps before changing contracts.
Smoke testsInvoke the runtime from the SDK after deployment and after every significant source or context change.
