# Agents

When you send a request to Proton Terminal, it first goes through the Intent Agent, which interprets what you're trying to do. Then, the Planning Agent breaks your request into logical steps—whether it's a simple query or a complex, multi-step transaction. For example, if you say "bridge all my USDT to Arbitrum and swap it to ETH," Proton understands the full flow and plans it accordingly.

From there, it determines whether the steps are informational (like fetching data) or transactional (like bridging, swapping, or launching tokens). Finally, the Execution Agent securely carries out the plan, all within a single chat interface.
