Agents

NEX agents are organized into three roles:

• Manager agents coordinate larger workflows across tools and engineering steps.
• Domain agents provide expertise for a specific part of the chip development flow.
• Task agents perform focused operations such as commenting code, lint remediation, or waveform analysis.

In practice, manager agents can orchestrate domain and task agents to complete broader objectives. Task agents can also be invoked directly by users from the command line in headless mode when a focused operation is all that is needed.

Use the sections below to explore the available agents by role.

Typical Workflow

For larger projects, a manager agent drives the overall objective, domain agents contribute discipline-specific reasoning, and task agents execute concrete operations. For targeted CLI usage, you can skip orchestration entirely and run a task agent directly.
