Create agent definition

Creates a Claude Agent SDK definition. Body includes the usual name, slug, prompt, model, max_turns, max_budget_usd, tool_scope, allowed_tools, schedule_cron, and the iter-30 trigger_on_sync_complete flag (fire after every successful sync, in addition to any cron schedule).

Optionally includes connectors: an array of custom MCP connector NAMES to enable on this workflow (mounted alongside the built-in breadbox MCP — e.g. a remote Gmail MCP). The connector definitions + credentials live in the global connector library, managed from the Workflows settings page; this field only references them by name. Requires full_access scope.

X-API-Key · string · header · required

Breadbox API key with format bb_<base62>. Carries either read_only or full_access scope. Write endpoints (and a handful of sensitive reads — /api-keys, /users/{user_id}/login) require full_access; endpoints that require it are flagged in their description.

Body

application/json

The body is of type object.

Response

201 - application/json

Created definition.

The response is of type object.
