Agent Controls
Agent Controls shows the runtime state of every agent in the account, including system agents such as the Console Operator and the builder agents. It doesn't build, edit, disable, delete, or deactivate agents.
See which agents are running
Open Govern › Agent Controls. The Emergency controls banner shows how many agents are running. Each row shows the Agent, its Project (system agents show —), its Status (Running or Idle), and More Actions (⋯).
Choose All projects or one project, and use Search agents… to find agents by name (it ignores case and accepts part of a name). The search is saved in the URL as ?search=<term>. Select refresh to reload the runtime state.

Stop one agent
Open the agent's More Actions (⋯), then Stop. It takes effect immediately, with no confirmation, and interrupts the agent's active runs; work in progress is lost. The agent runs again after its next trigger.
Stopping a system agent also stops every run and helper agent it started.
Stopping the agent's executionscan stay visible or appear twice; the request runs once.
Stop every agent
In the Emergency controls banner, select Stop all agents, then confirm. The confirmation warns it can't be undone; Cancel leaves work running. New runs can start immediately afterwards.
Narrow the list with Search agents… before stopping work. Stopping selected agents in bulk isn't available.
Open an agent from Agent Controls
For one of your own agents, open More Actions (⋯), then View Agent. It opens the agent in Agent Builder in a new tab. System agents offer Stop only.
Reference: Agent Controls.
Connectors
Connectors is the account-wide register of what agents may reach outside themselves. Every agent inherits it as its outer limit. Open Govern › Connectors. Each tab has its own Search connectors box.
See which integrations agents may use
On Integrations, each third-party connector shows its Connector, Description, Standing (currently Allowed), and Tags (such as Banking, CRM, or Productivity). It's the same catalog as Integrations Hub.

See which MCP servers agents connect to
On MCP servers, there's one row per connection an agent has made: the Connector with its URL, Standing, Project, and Used by.
The server URL is shown in full. If it carries a key as a query parameter, anyone who can open Connectors can read it.
See which platform skills agents use
On Platform skills, Qore's built-in skills are listed once per skill per agent that used it, with Standing, Project, and Used by. Search by the skill's name.
Reference: Connectors.
Governed Graph
A governed graph holds an institution's knowledge graph, loaded from a JSON graph package. Each fact keeps its source, owner, confidence, and effective date. Graphs are account-scoped. Open Govern › Governed Graph.
View governed graphs
Approver, Governance Manager, Auditor, Account Admin, Org Admin
Upload, rename, and manage governed graphs
Governance Manager, Account Admin, Org Admin
Attach a governed graph to an agent
Developer, Account Admin, Org Admin
Upload a governed graph

Edges whose from or to isn't a node in the package are skipped, so a graph can have fewer relationships than its package. Reference: Governed Graph › What the template decides.
View, download, or rename a graph
The row's â‹® menu has View (opens the uploaded package), Download (downloads the package file), and Edit (renames the graph). There's no delete. To update a graph, upload the revised package as a new graph.
Explore a graph and trace a fact
Select a completed graph. It opens on five tabs:
Overview — the institution profile, headline counts, graph composition, attestation and confidence, and regulatory coverage.
Ingest & Map — each source with the nodes it produced, and how nodes fill the foundation catalog layers.
Graph Explorer — Hub & spoke around one node, Jump to any node, the selected node panel with View provenance, and the Coverage matrix.
Provenance — one fact's trace from Source to Extracted field to Graph node to Status, with its owner, effective-from date, as-of version, and PII classification, above the source register.
Sign-off Queue (Preview) — attestations made here aren't saved yet.

Let an agent use a governed graph
A completed graph becomes knowledge in the account. In Agent Builder, select + Add Knowledge, tick the graph in Use Existing Knowledge, and select Add. The agent queries it with the Knowledge Graph Search skill, which returns up to 25 rows per query. See Create an agent › Attach existing knowledge or a governed graph.
Agents read unconfirmed nodes. Until sign-off is saved, nothing is attested, and Knowledge Graph Search doesn't filter by sign-off state.
Fix a failed graph upload
Hover over the Failed badge for the reason, fix the package, and upload it again. For each reason and its fix, see Governed Graph › The upload failed.
AI Gateway
Every model request an agent makes passes through AI Gateway. Agents request a capability tier — Economy, Smart, or Premium — rather than naming a model, and each family maps a model to each tier.
Review the AI Gateway configuration
Open AI Gateway › Gateway Settings. The Model gateway summary is read-only: a card for each family with its default status, gateway, providers, and tier models. Select Edit configuration to change it, or Connect to call the gateway from your code.

Enable a model family
Save applies to one family. Changing families before saving discards pending changes. There's no Save all.
Change the default family
In Edit configuration, select Set as default for the family, then save that family. Exactly one enabled family is the default; setting a new one removes the previous one. The default serves any request that doesn't name a family.
Choose the gateway and provider keys
In Edit configuration, select the family, then:
Gateway — UPTIQ AI Gateway (the default: managed routing, retries, caching, failover, and observability) or OpenRouter (your organization's own OpenRouter key; enter it, then fetch the models enabled on that account).
Provider authentication — for each provider, UPTIQ managed key (usage draws on your credit balance) or Bring your own key (the provider bills you directly).
Anthropic
Anthropic direct; GCP Model Garden
Gemini
Google AI Studio; Google Agent Platform
OpenAI
OpenAI direct; Azure OpenAI
Keys you bring are held in the deployment's cloud secret manager and are write-only. To rotate one, enter the new key against the same provider.

OpenRouter chooses the upstream provider itself, so you don't control which one serves a request or where it runs.
Change the model behind a tier
Every agent that requests the tier picks up the change; no agent is edited. The product doesn't warn when several tiers use the same model. Reference: Gateway Settings.
Check whether a model is available
Open AI Gateway › Model Catalog. Select a family to see its models, each with its context window and a status per provider: Enabled (authentication configured) or Not configured. Model Catalog is read-only.
Search with Search models, families, providers…; the search is kept in the URL as
?search=.Filter by family and by status (All statuses, Enabled, Not configured), and select Refresh.
Model Catalog labels the Gemini family Google; it's the same family. Reference: Model Catalog.

Call the AI Gateway from my own code
A response_format asking for JSON is a preference, not a guarantee; validate the reply. Reference: Gateway Settings › Connect to AI Gateway.
