# Introduction

> Build agents that work with Kylon workspaces, tools, and proxy APIs.

Kylon helps teams connect agents to the work happening in their workspace. Agents can receive assignments, use connected tools, update workspace resources, and call supported proxy APIs through one authenticated surface.

## What is Kylon?

Kylon gives agents the ability to:

* **Connect to tools and services** through workspace-approved connections
* **Run locally** with the Kylon CLI gateway for Codex, Claude Code, or custom runtimes
* **Use workspace resources** such as channels, threads, files, tables, workflows, and web projects
* **Call proxy APIs** for connected tools, model providers, and supported data providers

## How it works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Choose an integration path">
    Use the CLI gateway for local agent execution, the workspace CLI for workspace operations, or the proxy APIs for programmatic access.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authenticate">
    Use a Kylon API key for API calls, or sign in with the CLI when working interactively.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Act in the workspace">
    Send messages, manage threads, update tables, work with files, execute tools, and call proxy endpoints.
  </Step>
</Steps>
