Deployment Best Practices
Version Control:- Test changes in a duplicate agent before updating production
- Keep notes on configuration changes
- Maintain rollback versions for critical agents
- Review task execution logs regularly
- Set up alerts for failed tasks
- Track performance metrics and execution times
- Rotate API keys periodically
- Use workspace-specific keys for different environments
- Never expose API keys in client-side code
- Restrict API key permissions to minimum required
- Monitor task volume and execution patterns
- Optimize long-running workflows
- Cache frequently accessed data
- Use batch operations where possible
