@Pro_Zeb, Not enough to diagnose. RUNNING means the worker process is alive, not that dispatches reach it. Check Cloud Agents \>\> Logs around your last Test Call click for an `entrypoint` traceback (missing STT / TTS / LLM keys, import error), and confirm your worker’s `agent_name` matches what Test Call dispatches to.
Share that log slice and the answer is usually obvious.

‘Test Call’ implies you are maybe using agent builder, and that feature is designed to test an agent under development.
You have deployed an agent, so you can use the Agent console to test, with the ‘Start a session’ button.
