DEPRECATED: This endpoint is deprecated. Please use /aop/execute-async instead for better performance and reliability. Execute an existing Agent Operating Procedure (AOP) asset with optional user inputs. AOPs are pre-configured AI workflows that can perform complex tasks like research, analysis, and content generation.

Request

This endpoint expects an object.

asset_idstringRequired

ID of the existing AOP asset to execute

dry_runbooleanOptionalDefaults to false

Execute the AOP in dry-run mode: the agent runs with its real prompt, config, and read-only tools, but side-effectful tool calls (emails, external writes) are validated and captured instead of executed. The session remains visible and is marked with athena_metadata.is_dry_run for UI badging.

Optional user inputs to append to the AOP’s prompt as key-value pairs

Response

AOP execution started successfully

aop_asset_idstring

ID of the AOP asset that was executed

aop_configmap from strings to any

Full configuration of the AOP asset

aop_titlestring
