Create Agent Config

POST/v5/agent_configs

Create a reusable agent configuration (system prompt, harness, model, allowed tools) under the caller’s account.

The config is a template that a chat session or a non-chat trigger later turns into task params; creating one does not start any task. persistent_workspace opts tasks made from this config into a durable /workspace that survives sandbox death (off by default, and fixed once a task starts), and repos overrides which repositories provisioning clones into that workspace — omit it (null) to use the deployment default, or pass an empty list to clone nothing. A repos override is rejected with a 422 on the model-agnostic (litellm) harness unless persistent_workspace is also true, because non-persistent litellm tasks run in a pre-cloned warm-pool sandbox where the override would be ignored. allowed_tools may name MCP servers (Slack, Linear, GitHub, …) alongside harness tools, and granting an MCP server name authorizes every tool it exposes.

Give tasks a persistent /workspace that survives sandbox death. Fixed for a task’s life; defaults off.

repos: optional array of RepoSpec { url, depth, path }
