## When it is useful

Use when building durable AI agents or agentic workflows with Inngest and AgentKit, including model calls, tool calls, multi-agent networks, human approval, realtime progress, provider rate limits, crash-safe execution, and Agent Evals handoff. Covers AgentKit, step.ai, step.run, step.waitForEvent, native realtime, and when to use lower-level Inngest primitives instead of an in-memory agent loop. Skip generic LangGraph/CrewAI work that is not Inngest AgentKit.

## The Catch

AgentKit lock: createAgent + step.ai on Inngest Cloud. Not a generic agent framework skill. Hobby 5-step cap still applies.
