Stop a running agent

with Buildkite · Continuous Integration Management
Works with AI assistants

Use Buildkite: its Buildkite REST Agents API lets you stop a running agent in a single step (PUT /organizations/{org}/agents/{id}/stop). Buildkite also has an MCP server, so an AI assistant like Claude or ChatGPT can do it for you. capabilities.work can help you get signed up and connected.
