Agent Checks surface high-impact configuration issues before deployment

Agent Checks acts as a linter that proactively identifies costly, easy-to-miss issues—such as referenced but unavailable tools, conflicting instructions, role confusion between lookup and action tools, response failures in voice contexts, or insufficient authentication for sensitive data lookups—and prioritizes them by severity, with inline Ghostwriter fixes.

These are individual perspectives, not a measure of consensus. Source material stays in its original language.

Release governance: guardrails for agents at scale

Original excerpt

It catches the issues that are easy to miss and expensive to ship: a tool your prompt references but never made available, conflicting instructions to the agent, a lookup tool doing an action tool’s job, a response that works on screen but falls apart on a call, or a sensitive-data lookup with insufficient authentication. Checks are prioritized by severity, helping teams distinguish issues likely to impact customers from lower-priority quality improvements, and most come with a suggested fix from Ghostwriter that can be applied in place.
