    Agent asset configuration

    The creation page provides five asset tabs: Skill, SubAgent, Tools, Knowledge base, and Credential. Bind assets as needed.

    Resource configuration

    • Specifications: Select the CPU and memory required by the instance.

    • Set the maximum number of sessions that a single instance can host. Sessions beyond this limit are hosted by new instances.

    • Session TTL (seconds): Set the lifetime of a platform session. This is not the timeout of a single model generation.

    • Automatic scaling: When you enable automatic scaling, set the Minimum number of instances and Maximum number of instances.

    Network configuration

    • Allow the default network interface to access the internet: Enable this option if the Agent needs to access public model services or other public endpoints.
