The '''Agent''' is a interactive [[passive mob]] that is exclusive to {{el|ee}} and {{el|be}}.

In {{el|ee}} and {{el|be}} worlds connected to a WebSocket server, the '''agent''' is a mob that helps [[player]]s learn coding, by getting players to code the actions on it. The agent can be programmed to execute several tasks, like planting and harvesting, mining, chopping trees, and building.

In a {{el|be}} world not connected to a WebSocket server, it is [[Bedrock Edition unused features|unused]] and thus has no AI unless spawned by putting the command <code>execute @p ~ ~ ~ agent create</code> or in 1.19.10+ you can summon with <code>execute as @p run agent create</code> into an [[NPC]], but can still store items given to it by the player in its inventory. It can also teleport between dimensions with the player. 

The agent can be spawned with its spawn egg, obtainable with <code>[[Commands/give|/give]] @s spawn_egg 1 56</code>. However, it is completely invisible when spawned via the spawn egg.

== Usage ==
In ''Minecraft Education'', the agent is used in conjunction with [[Code Connection|Code Connection for ''Minecraft'' / Code Builder]], and is programmable by a {{w|visual programming language}}.

In ''Education'' and ''Bedrock Editions'', the agent can be used in conjunction with WebSocket servers. 

The agent carries its own 27-item [[inventory]], which can be manipulated by [[command]]s that the [[player]] programs it to use, or edited directly by a GUI that the player can access in-game, in any dimension.

The visual interface allows the player to drag and drop commands, structural constructs and other components into a sequence, and associate the sequence with a custom-named slash command, which can be executed in the traditional way, from the console.

The agent can push pressure plates. The agent also is invulnerable to attacks and is targeted by [[warden]]s, but the agent remains undamaged. Projectiles pass through them. Agents can also never ride [[minecart]]s or [[boat]]s, and vehicles go through them. The player cannot use a lead on them.

The agent can interact with buttons, levers or other right-click mechanisms like doors and gates.

== Trivia ==
*In [[10 Years of Minecraft]], there is a puzzle in the "Library" area that involves controlling the agent with [[glazed terracotta]]. On the {{BE}} version of the map, the agent is added in as a new mob, while on {{JE}}, it is an [[armor stand]] with remodeled [[infested chiseled stone bricks]] on its head.
