Uses of “Agents”

In the context of organizations and systems, agents are individuals or entities—human or automated—that act autonomously or on behalf of others, making decisions and facilitating interactions within decentralized networks, such as DAOs, to drive collaboration, resource exchange, and the creation of public goods. This definition is largely similar across several frameworks, such as Anticapture, Modular Politics and primitives.
