Agents
Agent chat playground
Test the selected agent with full tool and knowledge behavior before customers see it.
Agent chat playground
Open the playground
Go to Dashboard → Agents → select an agent → Chat (route pattern: /agents/[agentId]/chat).
What it’s for
The playground runs the same agent runtime as production (subject to environment): you can:
- Validate instructions and tone
- Trigger built-in tools (escalation, search, appointments, etc.)
- Observe RAG-grounded answers when knowledge is indexed
- Debug MCP actions if tools are enabled
Limitations
- Test traffic may use different rate limits or model routing than live channels—confirm in staging if you rely on exact quotas.
- Channel-specific formatting (WhatsApp templates vs web) may differ slightly; always verify on the real channel for final UX.
Tips
- Use realistic customer messages, including edge cases (“speak to a human”, “book a call”).
- After changing Agent settings, re-test here before publishing widget or channel changes.
