Artifact
A durable output produced during an agent task, such as a file, report, structured payload, or generated asset.
Plain English
It is the thing the agent made, not just the chat message about it.
Example
A research agent returns a Markdown report, source table, and chart as task artifacts.
Why it matters
Artifacts make agent work inspectable, shareable, and reusable across tools.
