Can my AI agent restart failed builds for a specific branch?

Yes. Ask the agent to find failed builds across your pipeline by using the list builds tool. Once it locates the specific build number, it can run the rebuild tool instantly, eliminating the need to search through hundreds of logs on the dashboard.

How can I check the status of my physical runner agents?

Ask your agent to list all agents connected to the Buildkite organization. It returns their UUIDs, operating systems, and connection state. If a runner hangs offline, your AI can immediately flag it to the Platform team, saving crucial deployment time.

If a commit is pushed to 'main', can the agent trigger a fresh pipeline deployment?

Absolutely. You can provide the commit SHA (or simply ask it to target 'HEAD' on the 'main' branch) and ask the agent to create a new build. It will hit the Buildkite trigger endpoint with a message of your choosing.
