**Agent name: **Discovery Agent

**Agent capabilities**: Interprets user intent, searches across AEM for the most relevant,
approved content, and surfaces it for reuse, connecting the right assets to the right moment.

**Documentation**: [Content Discovery Agent](https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/ai-in-aem/agents/content-advisor/discovery)

## Introduction

In this exercise, you'll use the Discovery Agent to proactively identify coffee-related
assets that are approaching their expiry date.

As an asset management practitioner, staying ahead of expiring assets is critical to
ensuring your website and campaigns never surface outdated or unlicensed content. Rather than manually auditing asset metadata, you can use the Discovery Agent to surface
expiring assets instantly using natural language.

## Search for expiring assets

Type the prompt below into the AI Assistant and click the **Send** icon.

`Which of my coffee related assets will expire within the next 6 months?`

Click the **Send** icon.

The agent will search across your AEM asset repository, applying a filter for
coffee-related assets with an expiry date falling within the next 6 months, and
return the matching results.

## Review the agent reasoning

1. Click on the **Reasoning Complete** accordion to expand it. This shows how the agent
   interpreted your prompt and determined the filters and steps needed to retrieve the
   results.

Feel free to try variations of this prompt to broaden or narrow your results. For
example:

- `Which assets across all categories will expire in the next 3 months?`
- `Show me expired assets in the frescopa folder`
- `Which approved banner images are expiring this quarter?`

before content goes unlicensed or outdated.
