Exposing Agents with Simple APIs in Python

via CodeSignal

Overview

Expose agents as services reachable from any interface. With Factors 5, 6, 7, and 11, you’ll persist unified state in a database, orchestrate runs via background tasks and REST endpoints, and add pause/resume controls. Wire human responses back into waiting workflows and decouple triggers from UI so web apps, bots, and systems can launch, monitor, and resume runs at scale.
