# Agent turn (loop runtime) — Botize Agents

Botize method — `agents.turn` (action).

Runtime activity: ONE complete turn of the agent loop — budget check, conversation, brain, metering, its own file tools and persistence. The durable loop yields this and nothing else; the only slow, external part is thinking, which is why a turn is the suspension point.

This is an action: it runs as a step of a task. Several can be chained.

## Fields you set

The field's internal name, its type and the values it accepts. These fields accept `{{...}}` tags from earlier steps.

- `agent_key` *(string)* — Agent key
- `session_id` *(string)* — Conversation key
- `role` *(string)* — Role
- `model` *(string)* — Brain model
- `messages` *(string)* — Messages
- `no_tools` *(string)* — Final turn
- `persist` *(string)* — Persist conversation
- `native` *(string)* — Own tool to run
- `bridge` *(string)* — Bridge answer

## Output variables

Data this step makes available. Reference them in later steps with the double-brace tag.

- `{{type}}` *(text)* — Kind
- `{{text}}` *(text)* — Answer
- `{{tool_name}}` *(text)* — Tool
- `{{result}}` *(text)* — Tool result
