# Endpoint agent

> Understand the managed endpoint component that contributes device and AI activity signals.

The endpoint agent is the managed device component used to collect configured signals and report device state. It supports centralized deployment, policy delivery, health monitoring, diagnostics, and administrative commands.

## What it contributes

* Device enrollment, identity, ownership, and liveness
* Configured AI activity and device inventory signals
* Agent, collector, and browser-extension status where present
* Health, permission, diagnostic, and command results

<Info>
  Exact collection behavior is controlled by workspace configuration and device
  policy. Do not infer that every visible data type is enabled on every device.
</Info>

## Lifecycle

<Steps>
  <Step title="Prepare deployment">
    Use the workspace Deployment area to obtain the installation path intended
    for your environment.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enroll the device">
    The installer registers the endpoint to the workspace using its deployment
    credentials.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Bind ownership">
    Confirm the enrolled device is associated with the correct person. Unbound
    devices remain visible for administrative follow-up.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Apply policy">
    Workspace device policy controls which endpoint components and commands are
    allowed to run.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Monitor health">
    Use Devices to review online state, component state, permissions,
    diagnostics, and recent commands.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Administrative controls

The device detail view exposes identity and owner information, health guidance, permissions, diagnostics and repairs, controls and policy, command history, and restricted destructive actions. Availability depends on role and device state.
