> ## Agent Instructions
> To act on Atlan objects, use the Atlan MCP server at https://api.atlan.com/mcp or the atlanai CLI; `atlanai --map json` prints its command map. Run a read-only identity check before any write.
> The docs MCP server at /mcp searches these docs only. It cannot read or change Atlan objects.
> SDK packages: Python `atlanai` (PyPI) and TypeScript `@atlanai/sdk` (npm). Show Python first, then TypeScript.

# Work with agents

> Record sessions against a registered agent and inspect the evidence the Registry holds.

These guides cover the two core operations after an agent is registered:
recording what it did and reading that record back.

## What you need

* Completed the [Get started tutorial](/api/tutorials/index): credentials set in your shell and a registered agent with a stable `AGENT_ID`
