Sentient Agents are designed to automate tasks and manage user interactions efficiently through specialized tool agents. These agents can perform a variety of functions—ranging from sending emails to creating documents and managing spreadsheets. The system operates under a strict JSON schema, ensuring clarity and consistency in every task execution. At the heart of this system is the Agent Orchestrator, which parses user queries, determines which tools to activate, and sequences tasks logically, especially when multiple tools are required to complete a complex workflow

Multi-Tool Actions and Examples

Sentient excels at handling multi-tool workflows, where tasks involve multiple tools that either work in sequence (dependent tasks) or simultaneously (independent tasks). The orchestrator ensures smooth execution by sequencing tool calls and managing data flow between them when necessary.

Example 1: Dependent Multi-Tool Task

Query: "Search for the latest project report in Drive and create a summary document in Google Docs."

Example 2: Independent Multi-Tool Task

Query: "Create a spreadsheet to track expenses and schedule a meeting with the finance team for next Monday at 10 AM."
