Agent Services
Agent Playground
The Agent Playground is a built-in testing environment where developers, administrators, and partners can experiment with agents in real time.
It provides a safe, isolated space to validate schemas, debug tools, and refine interactions before rolling agents into production.
Why Use the Playground?
- Test Invocations – Run sample payloads against your agent’s
/invoke
endpoint. - Validate Metadata – Ensure your
ai-tools.json
conforms to the Agent Blueprints. - Check Health – Verify that your
/health
endpoint responds correctly. - Preview User Experience – See how agents behave when surfaced inside the Orbit Platform (chat, dashboards, or tools).
- Debug Quickly – View structured logs, responses, and errors in one place.
How It Works
-
Select or Load an Agent
- Choose a built-in, community, or locally running agent.
- Upload or link its
ai-tools.json
.
-
Send Test Payloads
- Use JSON-based request builder.
- Interact with tools, chat interfaces, or custom APIs.
-
Inspect Responses
- View raw JSON output.
- Preview how responses render in Orbit Flow components (e.g., chart, table, metric).
-
Iterate Quickly
- Modify schema, metadata, or prompts.
- Re-run tests until the agent behaves as expected.
Key Features
- Schema Validation: Automatically checks tool definitions and input schemas.
- Sandboxed Invocations: Calls are isolated from production environments.
- Logging & Telemetry: Response times, payloads, and errors are captured.
- Multi-Interface Support: Test both chat-based and tool-only agents.
- Streaming Preview: See live token-by-token responses (if supported).
Accessing the Playground
- Orbit Console → Navigate to Agent Services → Playground for development and testing.
- Orbit Hosted → Playground available in your deployed platform for production testing.

Best Practices
- Always validate
ai-tools.json
before submitting to the Marketplace. - Test with both random path and edge case inputs.
- Use Playground logs to set initial rate limits and compliance flags.
- Document common payloads as examples in your agent’s README.
Tip: The Playground is the fastest way to confirm your agent is blueprint-compliant and ready for Marketplace submission.
