# Agents

Agents expedite, automate, or standardize certain tasks through the use of LLM plugins, API calls, server loops. There is no single type of agent. Examples include:

* Sending a transaction on a recurrent timer, in the absence of the user
* Running any standardized tasks repeatedly
* Monitoring a data flow and executing conditional tasks on the basis of the data
* Respond to messages and queries

**Note:** Agents are an upcoming feature.  For a proto-Agent feature, refer to the Hot Button section.
