Linking Sub-Agents

Map each Execute Workflow node to a published agent's address — where to find addresses and how to avoid broken links.

Linking Sub-Agents

If your workflow contains Execute Workflow nodes, your agent calls other agents. Before publishing, each of those nodes must point to an agent that is already published on indie.money — the wizard adds a "Link Sub-Agents" step for this.

Where to Find an Agent's Address

Every published agent has a unique address (it starts with 0x). You can copy it from:

  • Your builder dashboard — each of your published agents shows its address.
  • The agent's marketplace page — the address appears in the page details and in the page URL.

In the wizard, your own published agents appear in a dropdown so you usually don't need to paste anything.

Rules That Prevent Broken Agents

  1. Publish bottom-up. A sub-agent must be published before the agent that calls it. If your workflow tree is A → B → C, publish C first, then B, then A.
  2. Copy, never type. A single wrong character produces an address that looks valid but points nowhere. Always copy-paste.
  3. Same network. The linked agent must live on the same network as the one you're publishing. An address from a different network will show "not found" even if it's correct elsewhere.
  4. Links are permanent. Sub-agent links are locked at publish time. If a link is wrong, you must publish a corrected version of your agent — see Publishing Is Permanent.

The wizard verifies each address and shows the linked agent's name when it resolves. If you see "not found", re-copy the address and check you're on the right network.

Each run of your agent also pays for the sub-agent's runs it triggers. Price your per-run fee and max API cost with the whole chain in mind.
