UiPath Agents

Hard Rules

• Treat "build/create/scaffold/implement a UiPath agent" as the full One-Prompt Flow by default. Do not stop after file creation or local run unless the user explicitly says to stop there.
• A normal completion point is after smoke eval and the mandatory Delivery fork question. A final build summary before that is premature unless run/eval is blocked or the user opted out.

Project Type Detection

Determine the agent mode before proceeding:

1. Check for existing project files in the working directory:
   • pyproject.toml with uipath dependency + .py files → Coded
   • agent.json with "type": "lowCode" + project.uiproj → Low-code
2. No existing project found → ask the user:

   Should I build this as a low-code agent (no Python — configure through prompts and pre-built UiPath tools) or a coded agent (Python — full programmatic control with LangGraph, LlamaIndex, or OpenAI Agents)?

3. If the user needs help deciding, read references/coded-vs-lowcode-guide.md for a capability comparison.

After detection, read the quickstart for that mode before doing anything else:

• Coded → read references/coded/quickstart.md
• Low-code → read references/lowcode/lowcode.md
