# Agent # Agent
Agent is a powerful design pattern, where node can take dynamic actions based on the context it receives. An agent is a powerful design pattern in which a node can take dynamic actions based on the context it receives. To express an agent, create a Node with a prompt template like:
To express an agent, create a Node (the agent) with [branching](../core_abstraction/flow.md) to other nodes (Actions).
```python
"""
Here is the context: {context}
Now, choose your next actions:
1. Action name, what it is for, and what the parameters are
2. ...
Now decide your action by return:
```yaml
thinking: |
Based on the context:
action: action_name
```
"""
```
Then, connect this agent node with [branching](../core_abstraction/flow.md) to other action nodes.
> The core of building **performant** and **reliable** agents boils down to:
>
> 1. **Context Management:** Provide *clear, relevant context* so agents can understand the problem. For example, rather than dumping an entire chat history or entire files, use a [Workflow](./workflow.md) that filters out and includes only the most relevant information.
>
> 2. **Action Space:** Define *a well-structured, unambiguous, and easy-to-use* set of actions. For instance, avoid creating overlapping actions like `read_databases` and `read_csvs`. Instead, unify data sources (e.g., move CSVs into a database) and design a single action. The action can be parameterized (e.g., with a search string) or be programmable (e.g., through SQL queries).
