Create Agent Group

The Create Agent Group screen enables you to define and configure a new agent group within a project. Agent groups provide a centralized configuration layer that governs how associated agents operate.

How to Create an Agent Group

Follow the steps below to create an agent group.

1. Agent Group Name

Enter a clear and meaningful name for the agent group. The name should reflect the purpose or function of the agents associated with the group, making it easy to identify and manage.

Examples:

• Customer Support Agents
• Claims Processing Agents
• Task Automation Agents

2. Description

Provide a brief description of the agent group’s purpose and the types of tasks its agents are expected to perform.

This helps users understand the intended use of the group and its associated agents.

3. Adapter

Select the adapter that the agent group will use during execution.

Supported Adapters:

• LangChain
• Google ADK
• CrewAI
• Strands

Field	Description
Adapter	Choose an adapter from the available list. The selected adapter determines how the agent group interacts with underlying services and execution environments.

4. Tools Configuration

The Tools Configuration step allows you to manage the tools available to the agent group.

a. Selected Tools

Select built-in and custom tools that agents in the group can use during execution.

b. Blocked Tools

Select tools that should not be available to agents within the group.

Blocking tools helps restrict access to unnecessary, sensitive, or task-irrelevant functionality, ensuring agents use only the tools required for their intended purpose.

c. Custom Tools

Create a new project-scoped custom tool if the required tool is not available.

Click Add Custom Tool to create and register a new tool.

5. Agent Limits

Set execution boundaries and resource usage limits to manage agent performance and system consumption.

Setting	Description
Max Agent Calls	Specify the maximum number of agent invocations allowed during execution.
Timeout (sec)	Specify the maximum execution time in seconds before the request is terminated.
Input Tokens	Specify the maximum number of input tokens that can be processed in a single request.
Output Tokens	Specify the maximum number of output tokens that can be generated during execution.

6. Compliance

Assign compliance configurations to ensure agent interactions and outputs follow defined governance and validation rules.

• Select one or more compliance configurations from the available list.
• Applied compliance rules are enforced during agent execution.
• Help ensure agent behavior aligns with organizational and regulatory requirements.

7. Skills

The Skills configuration step allows you to select and manage the skills available to the agent group during execution.

a. Selected Skills

Choose built-in or project-specific custom skills available within the platform.

b. Custom Skills

Create a new project-scoped skill if the required skill is not available.

Click Add Custom Skill to create and register a new skill.

Newly created skills become available for selection, and the selected skills can be used by agents within the group during execution.

8. Sample Input

Provide a representative request that reflects a real-world scenario the agent is expected to handle.

This allows you to evaluate how the agent processes incoming requests and verify that the configured settings produce the expected behavior.

9. Output

Review the response generated by the agent after processing the sample input.

This helps confirm that the agent behaves as expected and that compliance controls, such as data redaction or blocking, are correctly applied.

10. Detected PII

Review any Personally Identifiable Information (PII) identified in the processed input.

This helps verify that sensitive data is accurately detected and that appropriate data protection measures are applied in line with configured compliance policies.

Save or Cancel

After configuring all required settings:

• Click Save Agent Group to create and register the agent group within the selected project.
• Click Cancel to discard the changes and exit without saving.
