Buildkite is a platform for running fast, secure, and scalable continuous integration pipelines on your own infrastructure.
Buildkite is a platform for running fast, secure, and scalable continuous integration pipelines on your own infrastructure. On Nagent, Buildkite is exposed as a fully-configurable developer tools integration that any agent can call — 5 actions, and API key authentication. No code is required to wire Buildkite into your workflow — connect it once via the External Integrations panel and reuse it across every agent you build.
Agent builders use Buildkite to automate the kinds of tasks developer tools teams previously handled manually. Concrete examples — each one is a single agent step in Nagent — include:
Every action and trigger is paired with a structured input/output schema (visible in the sections below), so when you wire Buildkite into Helix — our agentic agent builder — the editor knows exactly what each step expects and produces. Configure once, deploy anywhere across your Nagent agents.
Every operation an agent can call against Buildkite, with input parameters and output schema. Drop these into any step of an agent built in Helix.
BUILDKITE_GET_CURRENT_ACCESS_TOKENTool to retrieve the authenticated API access token details. Use when you need to confirm the validity and scopes of the current API token.
Output
Data from the action execution
Error if any occurred during the execution of the action
Whether or not the action execution was successful or not
BUILDKITE_GET_METATool to retrieve metadata about the Buildkite API. Use when you need to fetch webhook IP addresses for firewall or security configurations.
Output
Data from the action execution
Error if any occurred during the execution of the action
Whether or not the action execution was successful or not
BUILDKITE_GET_USERTool to retrieve details about the current authenticated user. Use when you need to get information about the user account that owns the API token.
Output
Data from the action execution
Error if any occurred during the execution of the action
Whether or not the action execution was successful or not
BUILDKITE_LIST_ORGANIZATIONSTool to list all organizations the current user is a member of. Use when you need to discover available organizations or get organization slugs for other operations.
Input parameters
Page number for pagination (1-based).
Number of results per page (default: 30, max: 100).
Output
Data from the action execution
Error if any occurred during the execution of the action
Whether or not the action execution was successful or not
BUILDKITE_LIST_PIPELINE_AGENTSTool to list connected agents for an organization. Use after confirming the organization slug. Supports optional filtering and pagination.
Input parameters
Filter results by agent name.
Page number for pagination (1-based).
Filter results by exact agent version.
Filter results by agent hostname.
The slug of the organization whose agents should be listed.
Number of results per page (1-100).
Output
Data from the action execution
Error if any occurred during the execution of the action
Whether or not the action execution was successful or not
No publicly available marketplace agent is found using this tool yet. There are 61 agents privately built on Nagent that already use Buildkite.
Build on Nagent
Connect Buildkite to any Nagent agent in minutes — no API key management, no boilerplate. Just configure and deploy.
The five questions agent builders ask before adopting a new integration.
Open the External Integrations panel inside Nagent (app.nagent.ai/externalIntegration), find Buildkite, and click "Connect Now." You'll authenticate with an API key — Nagent handles credential storage and refresh automatically. Once connected, Buildkite is available to any agent in your workspace.
No. Nagent provides no-code integration for every tool. Once Buildkite is connected, you configure its 5 actions directly in the agent builder UI — no API calls, no boilerplate, no schema management.
Helix — Nagent's agentic agent builder — lets you drop Buildkite steps into any workflow visually. Pick an action (e.g., one of those listed above), fill in the inputs (Helix knows the required vs. optional schema for each parameter), and connect it to upstream/downstream steps. Triggers run as the entry point of an agent, so when a Buildkite event fires, the agent kicks off automatically.
Every Buildkite action and trigger ships with a fully-typed schema — input parameters with name, type, required flag, and description, plus the output payload shape. The schemas are documented in the sections above. Helix uses these schemas to validate your configuration at build time and to type-check the data flowing between steps.
Yes. While Buildkite ships with 5 pre-built developer tools actions, you can layer custom logic around them inside Helix — pre/post-processing steps, conditional branches, retries, or stitching Buildkite together with other connected tools.
