Chapter 4: Activity Agents
Agents are the workers the Provision Manager dispatches to. Each agent handles one provisioning concern and runs as a stateless NATS consumer.
| Agent | What it does |
|---|---|
| IDP Agent | Creates OAuth2 clients for the participant, registers claim mappings |
| EDC Agent | Creates participant contexts in Control Plane and Identity Hub |
| Registration Agent | Registers the participant as a holder at the credential issuer |
| Onboarding Agent | Requests verifiable credentials and stores them in the Identity Hub |
Agents execute in dependency order — for example, the EDC Agent needs the IDP Agent to finish first so OAuth2 clients exist before participant contexts are created.
