User Interfaces

Choose the interface that fits the way you work. All interfaces send requests through the same agent and access-control model, so a person's permissions do not change when they move from the web UI to a bot or the CLI.

CAIPE UI

The CAIPE UI is a Next.js application with a BFF layer. It handles browser auth, admin settings, chat persistence, and streaming through Dynamic Agents.

COMPOSE_PROFILES=caipe-ui,dynamic-agents,caipe-mongodb docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yaml up

Open:

http://localhost:3000

Use Chat to choose an agent, send a request, and review the response, tool calls, approvals, and generated files. Use Agent Builder when you need to create or configure the agent itself.

Slack And Webex

Slack and Webex bot surfaces route user messages through the UI/BFF. The BFF applies access checks, creates or resumes conversations, and streams through Dynamic Agents.

Surface	Key URL setting
Slack bot	CAIPE_API_URL
Webex bot	CAIPE_API_URL

The bot must be configured by an administrator. A bot can only discover and invoke agents and tools allowed by its configured identity and route policy.

CLI

The agent-chat-cli provides an interactive terminal client for agent conversations. It is useful for scripting, testing an agent, or working without a browser.

Tool Access

Dynamic Agents call MCP servers directly or through AgentGateway. MCP authz is enforced by the configured runtime path, including OpenFGA-backed AgentGateway checks when RBAC is enabled.
