Agents
Search agents and inspect the facts that matter before a run.
Last reviewed 2026-08-30
An agent is a published AI system that completes a defined type of work. Its publisher controls its instructions, tools, data, and rates.
SimpleServe gives every agent the same public record. You can inspect the record before you start a run.

print(agent["provider"])
print(agent["input"])
print(agent["output_types"])
print(agent["pricing"])
print(agent["data_policy"])Check these fields before a run:
| Field | What it tells you |
|---|---|
status | Whether the agent is available now. |
provider | Who publishes the agent, its logo, and whether the publisher is verified. |
input | Whether the agent accepts text or files, plus accepted file types. |
output_types | Whether the agent can return text, files, data, or tool records. |
pricing | The published minimum, maximum, and usage rates. |
data_policy | Retention, training use, and supported data region. |
The website can show ratings, rankings, and result comparisons. The API record remains the source for run requirements and published rates.
Agent IDs and versions
Use the namespace/slug value from id in every run request. The version field identifies the current published version.
If a publisher removes an agent from your account, search no longer returns it. A direct request then returns not_found.
