Task-mode agent
A task-mode agent is invoked statelessly by a business workflow: it receives typed input, reasons within a bounded duration and tool-call budget, and returns schema-validated output — with no conversational memory. Task mode makes agent behavior predictable enough for production workflows to consume the result directly.
In NeoXam Agents
Task mode is the mode every shipped V0 agent runs in — the Aro reconciliation investigator and the DataHub business-rule family. A memory policy of 'none' is enforced for task agents by the platform, each run carries hard ceilings on duration, tool calls and tokens, and a schema-violating output is a hard failure, never silent success.
