Open Manage Agents to find agents, review their usage, and manage the agents you can edit. To build a new agent, click Create agent. See Create your first agent for a walkthrough.

Search and browse agents

Use the search bar to find agents by name or description. Choose a tab to browse: Agents are sorted by usage by default. When you search, results are sorted by relevance unless you have chosen another sort order. Click Name, Usage, or Last edited to sort by that column. Use the pagination controls below the table to browse more results. Hover over an agent’s name to read its description. Click its row to open the details panel. The table also shows access, model, editors, tags, and feedback. Hover over Feedback values to see the positive and negative counts. Usage is the number of active users in the last 30 days. A dash means usage data is unavailable.

Filter agents

Click Filters, select a category, and choose the values you want. Click Apply to update the list. You can combine filters with your search. Filter options reflect the agents matching your search and the other selected filters. Access and Usage are not available on the Dust tab. Applied filters appear above the table. Remove a filter with its × button, or click Clear all to reset all filters. You can also reset selections with Clear filters inside the filter panel. To share a filtered view, copy the page URL. The link preserves the tab and filters; recipients see only agents they can access.

View hidden agents as an admin

On the Workspace tab, open Filters, select Hidden agents, and click Apply. This includes unpublished agents from other members and agents that use restricted spaces. Admins can also see all archived workspace agents on the Archived tab.

Manage agents

Open an agent’s … menu to edit it, copy its ID, view more information, duplicate it, or archive it. Available actions depend on your permissions. To update several agents, select their checkboxes. Use Change tag, Set model, Unpublish, or Archive in the action bar. You can select active workspace agents you edit; admins can select any active workspace agent. Tag changes also respect your workspace’s publishing permissions. The header checkbox selects eligible agents on the current page. You can add selections from other pages. Changing the search, filters, tab, or sort order clears the selection. To restore an archived agent, open it from the Archived tab and click Restore in its details panel. You must be an editor or a workspace admin.

Become an editor as an admin

As a workspace admin, you can open any agent in the Agent Builder, even if you are not one of its editors. In that case, the builder opens in view-only mode with a banner indicating that you are not an editor of the agent. To make changes, click the Become an editor button, available both in the banner and in the Editors & Access section of the agent’s settings. This adds you to the agent’s editors list, after which you can edit and save the agent like any other editor. The same applies to skills: admins can view any skill in the Skill Builder and click Become an editor to add themselves as editors before saving changes.

Tags

Tags help organize agents in your workspace and make them easier to find. Think of them as labels that describe what an agent does, which team uses it, or its purpose. As an administrator, you play a key role in organizing your workspace’s agents through tags. Here’s how to set up and manage an effective tagging system.

Set up tags

Only administrators can access the Managing tags dashboard and create new tags. In this dashboard you will also be able to edit and delete tags, and check how many agents are tagged.
Tag suggestions: If you don’t have any tag set up yet, Dust will suggest a list of tags that can be assigned to your existing agents.

Assign tags to agents

Use the tag selector in an agent’s Tags cell to add or remove tags. To update several agents at once, select them and click Change tag.
