Creating AI Agents

AI agents are at the core of our platform. In this tutorial, you'll learn how to create and customize agents for your specific use cases.

What is an AI Agent?

An AI agent is an autonomous entity powered by artificial intelligence that can perform tasks, make decisions, and interact with users or other systems. Our platform allows you to create specialized agents for various purposes.

Creating Your First Agent

To create a new agent, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the Agents section in your dashboard
2. Click on the "Create New Agent" button
3. Fill in the required information in the form
4. Configure the agent's capabilities and permissions
5. Save your configuration

Agent Configuration

When creating an agent, you'll need to provide the following information:

// Example agent configuration
const agentConfig = {
  name: "Customer Support Agent",
  description: "Handles customer inquiries and provides support",
  capabilities: ["text-generation", "knowledge-base-access"],
  model: "gpt-4",
  temperature: 0.7,
  maxTokens: 2048,
  systemPrompt: `You are a helpful customer support agent for our company.
Your goal is to assist customers with their inquiries in a friendly and professional manner.
If you don't know the answer, direct them to a human agent.`
};

// Create the agent
const agent = await client.agents.create(agentConfig);
console.log(`Agent created with ID: ${agent.id}`);

Agent Types

Our platform supports several types of agents, each with different capabilities:

• Conversational Agents - Designed for natural language interactions with users
• Task Agents - Specialized in performing specific tasks or workflows
• Knowledge Agents - Focus on retrieving and presenting information from various sources
• Assistant Agents - Provide general assistance across multiple domains

Testing Your Agent

After creating your agent, you can test it in the sandbox environment:

1. Go to the "Sandbox" tab in your agent's dashboard
2. Start a conversation with your agent
3. Test different scenarios and edge cases
4. Review the agent's responses and behavior
