These task-based guides help you build ABL agents. Each guide starts with the decision or pattern you need, then gives you working ABL to copy into a project. Use the guides alongside the ABL reference. The reference explains what each section and keyword does. The guides show which sections to combine for a scenario, and why.

Prerequisites

Before you use these guides:
  • Read the ABL overview to understand sections, indentation, and the goal-driven execution model.
  • Get access to a project where you can create or edit agents.
  • Identify the tools, workflows, and knowledge bases your agent uses. The examples reference these by name, so you must replace the placeholder names with your own.

Guide categories

Choose an agent pattern, split work across agents, and set execution behavior.

Route each conversation to the owning agent and debug the routing decision.

Agent architecture and design

Conversation entry and welcome experience

Routing and multi-agent orchestration

Send each conversation to the agent that owns the work, handle unclear or bundled requests, and debug the routing decision.
