The Agents tab is a read-only, system-wide audit surface over every agent in EK. It lets super administrators inventory agents, inspect their full configuration, correlate them with their project and team, and export results for compliance or governance reporting — all without navigating into individual projects.Documentation Index

The Agents tab does not allow editing or deleting agents. Any change to an agent must be made from within its owning project by a user with the appropriate project role.
Prerequisites
Only users flagged as super admins can access this tab. Every backend endpoint independently verifies admin status and returns403 Unauthorized for all other users — including direct API calls made outside the UI.
Where to Find It
Go to Super Admin → Users & Workspaces → Agents. The tab renders alongside App Licenses, Projects, Teams, Teams Bots, and Users in the dashboard’s main content area.Agents Table
The table is ordered by Last Updated (descending) by default. This ordering is stable across page turns — paginating forward and backward never shuffles rows mid-session.| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Agent | The agent’s name. Falls back to “Untitled” if blank. |
| Agent ID | The public agent identifier used by chat and project routes. Shown truncated in monospace — hover for the full value. |
| Project | The owning project’s name, with its project ID on a second line. |
| Team | The team that owns the project. |
| Creator | The user who created the first version of the agent. Falls back to the project owner for legacy agents that pre-date version history. Shown as name with email underneath. |
| Created | Agent creation time, in your local timezone. |
| Updated | Time of last update. Default sort column. |
| Memory | On / Off badge. NULL is treated as Off. |
| Prompt Lib | On / Off badge for the Prompt Library feature. NULL is treated as Off. |
| Blocks | Count of building blocks attached to the agent. |
| Actions | Eye icon — opens the View Details modal. |
Em dashes (
—) appear wherever a value is NULL or empty, including timestamps.Search vs. List Mode
The tab operates in two modes depending on whether the search box is active.List Mode (default)
- Active when the search box is empty
- Table is paginated at 12 rows per page
- Pagination control shows
Page X of Y - Filters apply normally; the page resets to 1 when any filter changes
Search Mode
- Activated as soon as you type in the search box (400 ms debounce)
- Pagination is hidden; the backend returns up to 200 matching rows in a single response
- When the true match count exceeds 200, a summary line reads:
4815 match(es) (showing first 200 — narrow the search to see more)— refine your query or add filters to see the rest - Search is case-insensitive partial match across agent name, agent ID, project name, and creator name/email simultaneously
- Pasting a UUID with
_or%characters is safe — those characters are not treated as wildcards - Maximum query length: 100 characters
Filters
Four filters appear below the search bar. Changing any filter resets the page to 1.| Filter | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Project | Dropdown of every project that has at least one agent, sorted by name. |
| Creator | Dropdown of every distinct creator (first-version author or project owner of a project with agents). Shown as name (email). |
| Memory | Tri-state: Any / Enabled / Disabled. Disabled includes both FALSE and NULL. |
| Prompt Library | Same tri-state semantics as Memory. |
The Project and Creator dropdowns are capped at 1,000 entries. If the cap is reached, an amber hint appears below the dropdown. Use the search box to find projects or creators not shown in the list — search runs against the full table.
View Details Modal
Clicking the eye icon on any row opens the full configuration for that agent. The modal always refetches live data on open. Header grid — key configuration fields at a glance:| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Agent Name / Agent ID | Identifiers |
| Project (name + ID) | Owning project |
| Team (name + ID) | Owning team |
| Creator (name + email + user ID) | First-version author, with project-owner fallback |
| Temperature | Formatted to 2 decimal places |
| Created / Last Updated | Timestamps |
| Building Blocks | Count of attached blocks |
| Memory Enabled / Prompt Library | Feature flags |
| Mask URLs / Enrich Sources / Inline Citations / Filter Links | Response behavior flags |
| Use Google / Use KB | Source flags |
- Personality — the full system prompt (untruncated, unlike exports)
- Attached Blocks — building block configuration
- Rules — agent rules
- Document Keys — document scope configuration
- Memory Settings — memory configuration
- Prompt Settings — prompt library configuration
— throughout.
Refreshing Data
The refresh button (circular arrow, right of the search box) re-runs the current query — same page, search, and filters. It does not trigger a new search when the search box has pending input; it waits for the debounce to settle first to avoid showing stale results for a query that is about to change. Table queries are cached for 30 seconds, so navigating between pages or filter states you have already visited is instant.Export
The Export dropdown (top-right) streams the current view — including all active search terms and filters — to a downloadable file.| Setting | Detail |
|---|---|
| Formats | CSV and XLSX |
| Filename | agents-<timestamp>.csv or agents-<timestamp>.xlsx |
| Row cap | 100,000 rows. Narrow filters or search if you exceed this. |
| Timestamps | Formatted in your browser’s local timezone |
| Personality column | Truncated to 500 characters with a trailing ... — open View Details for the full prompt |
| Column order | Stable, starting with: name, agent_id, id, project_name, project_id, team_name, team_id, creator_name, creator_email, creator_user_id, … |

The dropdown is capped at 1,000 entries. Look for the amber “Showing first 1000…” hint below the dropdown. Use the search box instead — it queries the full table.
Search shows fewer rows than expected

Search results are capped at 200 rows per response. The summary line shows the true match count. Add filters or narrow the query to bring the result set under 200.

The column treats
