What is Agent Workflow?
An agent workflow is a multi-step business process that an AGNT agent executes autonomously — from receiving a customer inquiry through qualifying, routing, fulfilling, and following up, all without human intervention.
A workflow is a directed graph of skills with conditional branches. When a restaurant guest messages 'table for four tonight', the agent executes a workflow: parse the request, check availability across time slots, present options, confirm the booking, send a calendar invite, set a reminder, and queue a post-visit rating prompt. Each step is a skill invocation; the transitions between steps are the agent's reasoning.
Workflows can span hours or days. A lead-nurture workflow might qualify an inquiry on day one, send a follow-up on day three, escalate to a human on day seven if no response, and close the loop on day fourteen. The agent maintains state across the entire lifecycle, picking up exactly where it left off after each interaction. This persistent execution is what separates agent workflows from simple chatbot scripts.
