# Cake Agents

> Deploy Cake Agents with Helm or Terraform and learn the platform architecture.

Cake Agents runs a control plane in Kubernetes and launches per-session data plane pods for interactive agent work.

Use these guides based on how you operate infrastructure:

* [Getting Started with Kubernetes](./admin/getting-started-kubernetes) for teams comfortable managing clusters and wanting a direct Helm install.
* [Core Concepts](./core-concepts) for the platform model, architecture diagram, and component relationships.

## Admin Guides

* [Set Up GitHub](./admin/github-setup)
* [Configure Model Providers](./admin/model-providers)

## User Guides

* [Link GitHub](./user/link-github)
* [Set Git Author Info](./user/set-git-author-info)
* [Private sessions](./user/private-sessions)

## What You Deploy

* A Cake Agents control plane web application
* Session-scoped data plane pods launched on demand
* PostgreSQL, either embedded for development or external for longer-lived environments
* Kubernetes secrets for integrations such as Linear, LiteLLM, Slack, and auth

## Deployment Models

* A direct Kubernetes and Helm install when you already operate a cluster
* A fuller cloud environment provisioned with Terraform, including cluster, database, DNS, and the application release
