An AI agent that worked yesterday can fail today because a prompt, a document or a model changed. Running agents in production therefore needs what any production software needs — tests, monitoring, alerting and a budget — adapted to output that is generated rather than computed. That discipline is often called AgentOps, and ATX Agent Hub builds it in.
A test case is a golden input with assertions on the output: its content, key phrases, schema, latency and cost. Capture a real run as a test case or write one by hand, run the suite on demand or on every version change, and use it as a CI gate that blocks promotion when it fails. The regression dashboard compares results across versions.
Every run keeps its inputs, each step's output, the knowledge passages retrieved, the model used, duration, token cost and any error. Traces show the reasoning path across the workflow, which turns "the AI said something odd" into a specific step, a specific input and a specific fix — and lets runs be replayed for debugging and compliance.
Each step can carry a retry policy with exponential backoff, so a transient API error does not fail a whole run. When a run does fail, alerts go to e-mail, Slack or Teams.
Finance and platform owners see AI spend in real time per run, workflow, project, user and model, with forecast and burn-rate dashboards and CSV export for reconciliation. Budgets are set per project or model: a soft cap warns, a hard cap blocks new runs until it is raised or reset.
The operational practice of running AI agents in production: testing their output before release, tracing and monitoring runs, alerting on failures and controlling cost — the AI-agent counterpart of DevOps and MLOps.
With assertions that tolerate wording differences — on schema, key phrases, content checks, latency and cost — run against golden inputs on every version change, plus Fact Checking nodes in the workflow itself.
Yes. Hard budget caps per project or model block new runs once reached; soft caps warn in advance.
