Environment
Domain: Agent Fundamentals
🎯 Motivation
The world the agent operates in - it could be a filesystem, a web browser, a database, or a physical space via robots.
📋 Concrete Example
A coding agent’s environment: the filesystem, terminal, code repos, web search. A web agent’s environment: the browser, URLs, page content. The environment defines what the agent can perceive and affect.
🔗 Analogy
A fish tank vs a forest - a fish (agent) in a tank (environment) can swim and eat flakes. A fox in a forest can run and hunt. The environment shapes what actions are possible.
