But how could I know whether an agent is up or not? Is it from the CLI or SDK?

You can either use REST API or the APIClient (which can send the same request)

My guess is to manually read and parse the string that clearml-agent list returns, but I'm pretty sure there's a cleaner way to do it, isn't there?

Should be something like:
` from clearml.backend_api.session.client import APIClient

client = APIClient()

response = client.workers.get_all() `

I mean what should I write in a script to import the APIClient? (sorry if I'm not explaining myself properly 😅 )

But what is the name of that API library in order to have access to those commands from Python SDK?

Perfect, that's exactly what I was looking for 🙂 Thanks!

Just try it out manually and see what you get :)

Where can I find this documentation?

Hi GiganticTurtle0 ,
You can't set an agent to pull tasks only if other agents are off-line, but you can certainly have some monitoring script checking if the other agents are up and if not, starting this CPU agent - will that work?

You can call the API directly and get a list of existing agents

Response contains both the raw JSON response as well as an object with properties
