Minecraft:Agent

Template:Exclusive Template:Infobox entity An agent is a mob that helps Minecraft: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 Minecraft: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 Minecraft:damage, although they are targeted by Minecraft:zoglins and Minecraft:wardens. Agents pass through blocks, vehicles, and Minecraft: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 Minecraft:fence gates. They can Template:Control some blocks that are indestructible in Minecraft:Survival mode, such as Minecraft:bedrock and Minecraft:command block, except for Minecraft:allow and deny blocks.

Trivia

In Minecraft:10 Years of Minecraft, there is a puzzle in the "Library" area that involves controlling an agent with Minecraft: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 Minecraft:armor stand with remodeled Minecraft: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.
