# The AI Agents

> Meet the team of specialized AI agents you direct from the Workspace. Centurion coordinates the specialists; you steer them with @-mentions and approve what they do.

import { CardGroup, Card, Note, Tip } from '@mintlify/components';

Myrmex is run by a team of specialized **AI agents** you talk to from the [AI Workspace](/documentation/ai-workspace/overview). Each agent is an expert in one area — endpoints, integrations, threat intelligence, posture, reporting — and they work together on your behalf. You describe what you need in plain language, and the right specialists take it from there.

<Note>
  **"Agent" means two different things in Myrmex.** On this page, an *agent* is
  an **AI specialist** you chat with. That is separate from the **software
  agent** — the program installed on a host (see
  [Agent capabilities](/documentation/agent-endpoint-security/features)). The AI
  agents *operate* the software agent; they are not the same thing.
</Note>

## How You Direct the Team

You steer the team with `@`-mentions. There is **no model or agent selector** — you simply mention the specialist you want:

* **Mention an agent** — type `@` and pick a specialist (for example, `@Perseus`) to send your request straight to them.
* **Mention no one** — [Centurion](/documentation/multi-agent-system/agent-orchestrator), the orchestrator, reads your request and routes it to the right specialist (or several) automatically.

You can also `@`-mention **context entities** — a device, integration, alert, report, or finding — to scope the work to exactly what you mean.

## AI Proposes, You Approve

The agents investigate and analyze freely, but anything that **changes your environment** — isolating a host, applying a fix, running a command, scheduling an update — is proposed for your review first. You stay in control: the AI does the heavy lifting, and you approve what actually runs.

## The Roster

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Centurion" icon="brain-circuit" href="/documentation/multi-agent-system/agent-orchestrator">
    The orchestrator and your single point of contact. Interprets your request
    and routes it to the right specialists — including its SOC mode for alerts
    and investigations.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Brontes" icon="computer" href="/documentation/multi-agent-system/agent-endpoint-manager">
    The endpoint manager. Tracks the health, configuration, and installed
    software of the assets you've registered in Myrmex.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Perseus" icon="terminal" href="/documentation/multi-agent-system/agent-endpoint-specialist">
    The endpoint specialist. Investigates hosts and runs response actions —
    isolate, quarantine, kill a process, remediate, harden.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Hydra" icon="cloud" href="/documentation/multi-agent-system/integration-specialist-agent">
    The integration specialist. Operates your connected tools across network
    devices, security software, databases, and cloud platforms.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Orion" icon="shield" href="/documentation/multi-agent-system/orion">
    The threat intelligence analyst. Investigates indicators of compromise,
    domains, IP reputation, and adversary infrastructure.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Athena" icon="shield-halved" href="/documentation/multi-agent-system/athena">
    The security posture strategist. Scores your environment against frameworks
    like CIS, NIST, and ISO, and prioritizes what to fix first.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Iris" icon="magnifying-glass" href="/documentation/multi-agent-system/iris">
    The researcher. Gathers open-source intelligence and external context from
    across the internet.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Scribe" icon="book" href="/documentation/multi-agent-system/scribe">
    The author. Turns analysis into professional reports, policies, and audit
    documents ready to share.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Working Together

The real power shows when a request needs more than one specialist. Say you ask Myrmex to investigate a suspicious alert on a server:

1. **Centurion** interprets the request and builds a plan.
2. **Orion** enriches the indicators — checking domains, IPs, and reputation.
3. **Perseus** inspects the host itself, looking at the processes and connections behind the alert.
4. **Athena** checks whether the host's posture left an opening worth fixing.
5. **Scribe** writes up the findings as a shareable report.

You watch it happen in the Workspace, and you approve any action that changes a system before it runs.

<Tip>
  New to the platform? Start with [Core
  concepts](/documentation/get-started/concepts) to see how the agents fit into
  contexts and the Workspace, then try the
  [Quickstart](/documentation/get-started/quickstart).
