Capabilities and evidence

Support labels reflect the supplied research. Documentation and vendor claims are not independent product tests. “Not established” means the researcher did not find support; it does not prove a capability is absent.

Documented by provider

Agents authored in Python, Java, TypeScript or C#, or imported from frameworks such as OpenAI Agents, Google ADK and LangGraph, compile into ordinary workflow definitions and are registered on the server as reusable, versioned Conductor Agents, with an option to pin a version when invoking them.

Limit: Documentation does not describe approval gates on version promotion or a change-audit record.

Documented by provider

Users and groups control access to an Orkes Conductor cluster, with direct roles, group memberships and inherited resource permissions spanning workflows, tasks, secrets, environment variables, tags, domains, integrations, prompts and gateway services.
