Getting Started with AI Agents

AI agents are revolutionizing how we approach task automation. In this guide, we'll walk through setting up your first agent on our platform.

What Are AI Agents?

AI agents are autonomous software entities that can perform tasks on your behalf. Powered by Large Language Models (LLMs), they can understand natural language instructions, make decisions, and take actions.

Key Capabilities

• Natural Language Understanding: Interpret user requests in everyday language
• Contextual Awareness: Maintain information across multiple interactions
• Task Automation: Execute complex workflows without human intervention
• Learning & Adaptation: Improve performance based on feedback

Setting Up Your First Agent

Creating an agent on our platform is straightforward. Here's how to get started:

// Example agent configuration
const myAgent = {
  name: "Research Assistant",
  capabilities: ["web_search", "document_processing", "summarization"],
  preferences: {
    responseFormat: "concise",
    citationStyle: "APA",
    maxSourceCount: 5
  }
};

Configuring Preferences

Your agent's behavior can be customized through preferences. These dictate how the agent processes information and formats responses.

Best Practices

When working with AI agents, consider these best practices:

1. Be specific in your instructions
2. Start with smaller, well-defined tasks
3. Provide feedback to improve performance
4. Regularly review and refine agent settings

Next Steps

Now that you've set up your first agent, try assigning it a simple task to see it in action!
