Enable and run
New agents are disabled. Enabling is the deliberate step that makes an agent runnable.
What enabling does
Aleph pins an immutable bundle version, synchronizes its schedules, and activates connected channel transports. Chat, scheduled turns, and memory writes are allowed only while the agent is enabled.
Before enabling, verify the bundle version and satisfy every required secret and variable in the agent's exact scope.
Run the agent
Once enabled, you can:
- start or resume a web conversation;
- run a schedule immediately;
- let hourly schedule evaluation launch due work;
- receive messages through connected Discord or Telegram bots.
Every turn reconstructs the pinned bundle in isolated compute and resumes the selected conversation's runtime session.
Disable safely
Disabling removes active schedules and blocks new runs. Existing conversations, memories, versions, and channel bindings remain stored. Inbound channel events are skipped until the agent is enabled again.
Publishing a newer version does not silently change a running agent. Enable the version you want to pin.
