Agents
Agents is the list of models Projects uses when it estimates a card. The estimate picks the cheapest suitable model from the agents you have left switched on, unless the card is pinned to one.
The shared list is curated. You can switch any of those off for yourself, and you can add your own. Both are on Free and on Pro. There is no separate Agents upgrade.
What an entry holds
- A name and a vendor.
- What the agent is good at, which is how a card is matched to it.
- How much it can hold in context.
- What it costs, in tokens and in money.
- The effort levels it offers.
A card's estimate then adds a light, medium, or heavy tier, the tokens and dollars that tier would likely take, and follow-on runs when you have pinned those.

| View | What it is for |

| List | Every agent you can use, official and your own, minus the ones you switched off |
| Compare | Tick a few and put them side by side |
| Vendors | Link an account you already have, and read the usage that vendor reports |
Switching an official agent off stops cards being priced against it. It does not delete it from the shared list. You can switch it back on.
You can add up to 25 agents of your own.
Linking a vendor
The credential is stored encrypted. It is sent only to that vendor, to read usage. It does not send your prompts anywhere, and it is not the key Diffs uses for a model pass. Linking and unlinking stay on this page.
From an assistant
search_ai_agents and get_ai_agent read the list you have left on, so an assistant can compare models or find an id to pin on a card.
Adding an agent, switching one off, and linking a vendor stay on this page.
When an assistant reads cards to work on them, it can pass its own vendor. The estimate then names the closest model of that vendor, and the effort to use, alongside the suggestion it would otherwise have made.
