About
The Agents API lets developers build and run cloud agents with the same harness and infrastructure that powers Codex, fully managed by OpenAI. A production-ready agent can be created with a single API call by specifying the task, model, tools, and environment, while OpenAI hosts and maintains the agent harness. Developers can choose where agents run: in an OpenAI-hosted sandbox, on their own infrastructure, or through supported sandbox partners. OpenAI-hosted sandboxes provide secure environments where agents can run code, work with files, use packages, skills, and plugins, and produce artifacts. The API is designed for long-running work, with automatic context compaction that preserves relevant information as sessions span multiple context windows. Tool search loads relevant tool definitions only when needed, while programmatic tool calling lets agents run calls in parallel, chain related operations, and filter or combine results in code.

About
The Parallel Search API is a web-search tool engineered specifically for AI agents, designed from the ground up to provide the most information-dense, token-efficient context for large-language models and automated workflows. Unlike traditional search engines optimized for human browsing, this API supports declarative semantic objectives, allowing agents to specify what they want rather than merely keywords. It returns ranked URLs and compressed excerpts tailored for model context windows, enabling higher accuracy, fewer search steps, and lower token cost per result. Its infrastructure includes a proprietary crawler, live-index updates, freshness policies, domain-filtering controls, and SOC 2 Type 2 security compliance. The API is built to fit seamlessly within agent workflows: developers can control parameters like maximum characters per result, select custom processors, adjust output size, and orchestrate retrieval directly into AI reasoning pipelines.
