How do I create an agent?

An AI Agent can be used like a normal AI chat, but can also be given a standing job to do.

Key Interface Sections

💬 Chat

Here you can chat with your agent, or discuss what its job should be.

📝 Instructions

These are standing instructions for your agent, describing how it should behave, how it should react to incoming events (such as emails), or if it should do recurring tasks. You can write the instructions yourself, or chat with the agent and then ask it to write the instructions.

📁 Docs

Here you can upload docs with additional context. The Agent will know about the existence of these documents and can read them when needed. You can also allow the agent to create its own documents.

⚡ Capabilities

Here you give the agent access to tools and integrations such as Slack, image generation, email send/receive, etc. Or just chat with the agent and it will suggest what it needs to do the job.

📊 Activities & Approvals

Here you can see a diary of what the agent has been up to. This is especially useful if the agent does stuff in the background.

⚙️ Settings

Here you can configure things like the agent's name and image, and advanced features like agent to agent communication.
