Getting Ready for Agents

The Agent Framework is planned for H1 2026, but you can start preparing your infrastructure and workflows today.

This page is based on the "Call To Action" content from the Mycelium Agents page.

1. Establish the Networking Layer

Agents will rely on Mycelium Network for secure, peer‑to‑peer connectivity.

  • Install and use Mycelium Network on your key devices.
  • Become comfortable with overlay addresses and testing connectivity.
  • Decide which machines, clusters, and locations will be part of your "agent fabric".

2. Set Up Compute & Clusters

Use Mycelium Cloud and Virtual Data Centers as the compute substrate for future agents.

If you plan to run larger AI workloads, consider capacity with GPUs or high‑memory nodes.

3. Decide How You’ll Host Capacity

If you want agents to run on hardware beyond your personal machines, look into becoming a hoster:

This prepares a foundation where agents can later run on your own nodes or on community capacity.

4. Map Your Data & Privacy Requirements

Agents are meant to operate on your data, not someone else’s cloud silo.

Begin planning:

  • Where your key datasets live today.
  • Which data must stay in specific jurisdictions or networks.
  • Which data could be processed on edge nodes, VDCs, or both.
  • How quantum‑safe and replicated storage (e.g. QSFS) might fit into your architecture.

5. Start with Today’s Components

From the call‑to‑action message:

“The Agent Framework launches in H1 2026, but the foundation is ready now. Use today’s components — models, storage, compute, and network — to deploy workloads, connect nodes, and prepare for the next generation of distributed AI.”

Practical steps you can take now:

  • Deploy AI workloads on Mycelium Cloud clusters.
  • Use Mycelium Network to connect dev machines, clusters, and edge boxes.
  • Experiment with multi‑node workflows and data flows across environments.
  • Treat these as early prototypes that agents will later formalize and automate.

6. Stay Informed

As the Agent Framework evolves, watch for:

  • Updated documentation and architecture deep‑dives.
  • Early SDKs, CLIs, or runtimes for prototyping.
  • Example patterns combining agents, VDCs, and QSFS.

Follow official channels (site, docs, community) for announcements.


Summary

You don’t need to wait for the Agent Framework launch to start building:

  • Use network, cloud, VDC, and hosting pieces today.
  • Organize data and infrastructure so that agents can slot in later.
  • Think in terms of sovereign, distributed AI rather than centralized APIs.

When agents arrive, you’ll already have the networking, compute, and data foundations in place.
