Nx Agents (Distributed Task Execution) is one of 10 APIs that [Nx](https://apis.io/providers/nx-dev/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include CI, DistributedExecution, NxCloud, and Agents. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

Nx Agents distribute task execution across managed CI machines with automatic load-balancing, flaky-task retries, and dynamic agent allocation sized to the affected task graph. Includes Atomized E2E test splitting that breaks Cypress and Playwright suites into file-level units distributed across agents. Per Nrwl benchmarks, Nx Agents are 4x faster and 30% cheaper than equivalent GitHub Actions runners.
