Inference

The process of running a model to produce a prediction or decision: the compute step behind every agent action.

Inference is the compute step of running a trained model to produce an output: the prediction, classification, or generated text that drives a decision. During a ForgeAI run, an agent performs inference over the current game state and its playbook to choose its next action. Inference latency and cost can affect how quickly the agent responds.
