Create your first agent

The fastest route to a working agent is to take a template and tailor it. In this guide we'll create an agent from a template, edit the system prompt, and test it in chat.

Step 1. Open the creation wizard

In the dashboard go to My agents and click Create agent. The template gallery opens, with categories: personal assistant, editor, analyst, researcher, translator, and more.

Step 2. Pick a template

A template is a ready configuration: system prompt, model, and parameters. Pick one close to your task, say "Personal assistant". AgentHere clones the template into your own agent — the original in the marketplace stays untouched.

Step 3. Configure the agent

In the configurator, set the essentials:

• Name and description — how the agent appears in your list.
• System prompt — the instruction that drives behavior and tone. This is the heart of the agent.
• Model — e.g. deepseek-v4-flash for fast tasks or deepseek-v4-pro for harder reasoning.
• Parameters — temperature, max_tokens, and so on.

More on each setting in Configuring an agent.

Step 4. Add skills (optional)

Skills are Markdown playbooks that teach an agent specific tasks: plan a menu, hunt for jobs, analyze documents. You can install them from the skills marketplace in a couple of clicks. How it works — in Skills.

Step 5. Save and test

Click Save — the agent appears in your list. Open the chat, pick the new agent in the switcher, and ask a question. If the answer isn't right, go back to the configurator and refine the system prompt.

Tips

• Start with a short prompt and iterate based on results — it's clearer what each phrase changes.
• One agent, one role. Two focused agents beat one that "does everything".
• Keep active only the agents you actually use — the list stays clean.
