Every agent has a visibility setting that decides who can find it and who can put it to work. A new agent is visible to your whole workspace by default. You can make it private, scope it to a team, or open it to anyone.

Visibility tiers

Each agent sits in one tier at a time. Private keeps an agent to yourself, for setup or for work only you should touch. Team scopes it to one team inside a larger workspace. Internal is the default: any workspace member can find the agent and put it to work. External opens the agent to people outside your workspace, who can email or message it without a Skydive account.
Workspace owners and admins can always see, message, and edit every agent in the workspace, whatever its tier.

See, use, edit

Visibility answers who can reach an agent. It is separate from who can change one.
  • See and use is set per agent, by the tiers above.
  • Edit covers the persona, connections, secrets, and routines. Workspace roles decide who has it.
Someone can use an agent every day without being able to change how it behaves. That is the normal arrangement for a shared team agent.

Changing an agent’s visibility

Open the agent, click the menu, and pick a tier under Manage privacy. The change takes effect right away. When you lower an agent’s visibility, anyone who lost access stops seeing it on their next view refresh.

Sharing an agent

In the same menu, choose Share for a link to the agent’s profile, plus a profile card you can download as an image. Whether a teammate can open the link depends on the tier. Share an internal or team agent inside your workspace. Set an agent to external before sharing it outside.
An external agent can be messaged by anyone who reaches it, including unidentified senders over email or text. Use it for agents meant to face customers or the public, not for anything that touches private workspace data.

Visibility and shared memory

Visibility and memory go together. Everyone who can message an agent draws on the same memory. A team or internal agent is a shared space: knowledge one person teaches it helps everyone. Keep private or sensitive details out of a shared agent, and use a private agent when the work should not be visible to the rest of the workspace.

What an agent itself can reach

Visibility governs people. What the agent can reach is a separate question, answered by the credentials you connect and the proxy that holds them.

Integration permissions

How credentials are scoped, and why the agent never sees a raw token.
