A Bamboo agent is a service that provides capabilities to run Job builds. There are two types of Bamboo agents:

To view the status of all of your agents, see Monitoring Agent Status.
Creating a New Agent
To create a new agent, see:

Notes
- A capability is a feature of an agent. A capability can be:
- an executable (e.g. Maven)
- a JDK
- a custom capability (a key-value property which defines a particular characteristic of an agent, e.g. 'operating.system=WindowsXP' or 'fast.builds=true')
- a Version Control System client application (e.g. Git, if Git is being used as the source repository)
Capabilities can be defined specifically for an agent, or they can be shared between either all local agents or all remote agents. Note that the value of an agent-specific capability overrides the value of a shared capability of the same name (if one exists).
