Create Your Own Agent
Athena enables you to develop personalized AI agents specifically designed to meet your unique requirements. These agents can be customized to manage various tasks, from addressing basic inquiries to providing technical support. This guide will guide you through the steps to create your own agent using Athena.
Step-by-step Instructions
Configure your agent
In the Chat sidebar, locate and click on the settings icon on top-right corner. You can configure existing agents or create a new agent.
Create a new agent
Click on + Add New Agent and follow the steps below to configure the settings for your new agent.
In this exercise, we will create an Insights Agent.
Edit Basic Info
This setting requires you to add a Name, Description and System Prompt for your agent.
Name is the identifier for your assistant. Enter the following in the Name field.
Configure Model Settings
Model is the LLM that will drive your agent. Choose your desired model from the dropdown.
For this case, let’s choose GPT-4o.
Add Tools
Tools are the skills with which you equip your Agents. You can add existing Tools within Athena to power your agent with specific skills that come with each tool.
For this case, add the Read Every Page and In-Depth Analysis tools.
Update Knowledge Base
Knowledge Base is a repository of information that enables your agent to reference and retrieve data from Athena or from data sources outside Athena. Add assets from your workspace by mentioning them as follows: @your-asset-name or drag and drop files from your local System.
For this case, you need not add any assets to the knowledge base, but for illustration this is how you can add assets from your workspace in your agent’s knowledge base.
Create your agent
Click on Save Changes to create your new agent.
Use the agent
Choose the agent you just created from the Agents dropdown on the top-left of the Chat sidebar. Enter the following prompt and press Enter.
@your-document-name by the name of the document you wish to summarize.
