Lens separates autonomous agents, agent-capable tools, model runtimes and supporting development systems. Its technical inventory can include frameworks, MCP servers, skills, models, API services, workflows, repositories and workloads without pretending that every framework import is an agent.
- Endpoint collectors inspect known configuration roots, processes and listeners.
- Repository and CI scans inspect manifests, imports and validated agent, MCP, A2A, OpenAPI and workflow descriptors.
- The Kubernetes controller observes workload metadata with read-only permissions and no Secret or pod-exec access.
