You are doing agile. The agile manifesto is:

  Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
  Working software over comprehensive documentation
  Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
  Responding to change over following a plan


as a philosophy, yes; but as the way Agile is structured at most companies, no.


Just means you're doing it properly :-)

It's kinda nuts how many capital-A Agile processes (and consultants!) produce situations that are diametrically opposed to the original ideas. Notably, Scrum is often processes and tools over individuals and interactions.
