Template:Exclusive Template:Infobox entity An agent is a mob that helps players learn coding, by getting a player to code the actions on one. Agents can be programmed to execute several tasks, like planting and harvesting, mining, chopping trees, and building. It is only available in Template:El and Template:BE worlds connected to a WebSocket server.

Spawning

In a Bedrock Edition world not connected to a WebSocket server, agents are unused and thus have no AI unless spawned by putting the command Template:Cmd into an Minecraft:NPC, but can still store items given to them by a player in its inventory. Agents can also teleport between dimensions with the player.

Agents can be spawned with its spawn egg, obtainable with Template:Cmd. However, they do not spawn when spawned with the spawn egg.

Usage

In Minecraft Education, agents are used in conjunction with Minecraft:Code Connection, and are programmable by a Template:W.

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

Agents carry their own 27-slot Minecraft:inventory, which can be manipulated by Minecraft:commands that the player programs one 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.

Agents are completely invulnerable to all forms of damage, although they are targeted by zoglins and Minecraft:wardens. Agents pass through blocks, vehicles, and projectiles, thus making them unable to ride a Minecraft:minecart or Minecraft:boat. Agents cannot be leashed.

Agents can push pressure plates and Template:Control Minecraft:doors, Minecraft:buttons, Minecraft:levers, and fence gates. They can Template:Control some blocks that are indestructible in Survival mode, such as Minecraft:bedrock and command block, except for allow and deny blocks.

Trivia

In 10 Years of Minecraft, there is a puzzle in the "Library" area that involves controlling an agent with glazed terracotta. On the Template:BE version of the map, the agent is added in as a new mob, while on Template:JE, it is an armor stand with remodeled infested chiseled stone bricks on its head.
The agent addition in Pocket Edition was likely accidental due to Pocket Edition sharing the same codebase as Minecraft Education.
