Hi Ajinkya,

The different agent statuses are as follows:

1. **Running** – Indicates the agent is operational and ready to execute requests.

2. **Stopped** – Indicates the agent is turned off. Details regarding the reason for shutdown are available.

3. **Stopping** – Indicates the agent is in the process of shutting down. Ongoing executions are allowed to complete before the agent stops.

4. **Pending Update** – Indicates the agent is aware of available updates and will not accept new requests during this state.

5. **Updating** – Indicates the agent is upgrading itself and will wait for ongoing executions to finish before completing the update.

6. **Unknown** – Indicates the server is unable to determine the agent’s status, typically due to an abrupt or unexpected shutdown.
