Generators can furthermore interact specifically with agents.
The Hood/Helm tooling like `|install` are generators automatically routed by Dojo to the correct agent.
The [`+dbug` agent](/guides/additional/app-workbook/dbug) is invoked against an agent to display internal state.
Any app can implement generators to wrap raw pokes (see [`%ahoy`](/guides/additional/app-workbook/ahoy) for instance).
For instance, `:dojo|wipe` is equivalent to `:dojo +dojo/wipe`. This pokes the `%dojo` agent with the output from running the generator located at `/gen/dojo/wipe.hoon`.
The Hood/Helm tooling like `|install` are generators automatically routed by Dojo to the correct agent. `|commit`, for instance, is equivalent to `:hood +hood/commit`. `%hood` generators are special-cased because it is the system app.
