Agent Workflow

This workflow walks through the full lifecycle of deploying an agent using the Nestbox AI CLI. It includes environment setup, agent creation, deployment, execution, and cleanup.

Step 1: Project Setup

Start by creating a new working directory and initializing your CLI session.

mkdir my_project
cd my_project
nestbox login demo.nestbox.ai
nestbox project use sales

Step 2: Prepare Compute

List available compute instances or create a new one:

nestbox instance list
nestbox instance create groot

Step 3: Create Agent

Create a new agent with inputs and associate it with the instance:

nestbox agent create my-agent --input name,string,default

List agents to confirm:

nestbox agent list

Add a webhook to receive events:

nestbox agent webhook add "https://webhook.site/your-id" QUERY_COMPLETED

Step 4: Generate and Deploy Agent

Generate the agent project locally:

nestbox agent generate agents --lang=ts
cd agents

Deploy the agent to the compute instance:

nestbox agent deploy my-agent-id

Step 5: Run and Monitor

Invoke the agent with test input:

nestbox agent run name Roy

Tail the logs:

nestbox agent logs my-agent --tail 100

Step 6: Cleanup

Remove the agent and logout:

nestbox agent remove my-agent-id
nestbox logout demo.nestbox.ai
