Multi-Agent Networking

August 16, 2026 · View on GitHub

Connect and collaborate between agents with automatic reliability and recovery.

Core Concepts

  • host.md - Make agents network-accessible with host()
  • http-routes.md - Publish public, contacts, and admin HTTP resources
  • connect.md - Connect to remote agents with connect()
  • remote-call.md - Run a remote agent's tools directly with remote.call(), gated by the host.yaml whitelist
  • io.md - Stream events and communicate with clients
  • session-reconnect.md - WebSocket reconnection and session recovery
  • dashboard.md - Understand and customize your agent's Control Center
