Deploy an Agent

Build and activate an immutable Agent package from an archive or pinned Git commit.

Before you begin

Prepare a ZIP or TAR.GZ package, or a public HTTPS Git repository with a full 40-character commit SHA. The manifest must declare an Agent Resource and its namespace-local id. Resource selectors, Tools, Policy references, limits, and runtime compatibility belong in the package so the deployment remains reproducible.

Steps

  1. Open Agents and choose Deploy Agent.
  2. Select Package archive or Git repository.
  3. Supply the archive, or enter the repository URL and immutable commit.
  4. Review the expected Resource kind and deployment guidance.
  5. Choose Deploy and wait while Constal builds, validates, probes, and registers the revision.
  6. Open the resulting Agent detail page.

The previous revision remains immutable. Activation updates the current registry head; it does not rewrite Runs that already pinned an earlier deployment.

Verify

Confirm the detail page shows the expected canonical CRN, Agent version, execution mode, Resource bindings, Tool catalog, and limits. Follow each linked Resource to verify the exact deployed target. Start a small Run and check that its journal records the new deployment revision.

Next steps

Continue with Operate Agents, or Start a Run to test the deployment.
