You know what you want to build - these guides show you how. Unlike Learn tutorials that teach progressively or Concepts that explain primitives, guides are task-oriented. Pick the one that matches your problem and go.

Guides

• Testing agents and actions - unit and integration test patterns for agents, actions, and workflows
• Debugging and troubleshooting - diagnosing issues with debug modes, event buffers, and structured diagnostics
• Error handling and recovery - configure error policies, handle failures, and recover gracefully
• Persistence and checkpoints - save and restore agent state with ETS, file, and hibernate/thaw
• Building a weather agent - end-to-end tool-calling agent with external API integration

Next steps

• Concepts - understand the primitives behind these patterns
• Operations - deploy, monitor, and scale your agent systems
