# Lindy Core Workflow A: Agent Creation ## Overview Complete workflow for creating, configuring, and deploying Lindy AI agents. ## Prerequisites - Completed `lindy-install-auth` setup - Understanding of agent use case - Clear instructions/persona defined ## Instructions ### Step 1: Define Agent Specification ```typescript interface AgentSpec { name: string; description: string; instructions: string; tools: string[]; model?: string; temperature?: number; } const agentSpec: AgentSpec = { name: 'Customer Support Agent', description: 'Handles customer inquiries and support tickets', instructions: ` You are a helpful customer support agent. - Be polite and professional - Ask clarifying questions when needed - Escalate complex issues to human support - Always confirm resolution with the customer `, tools: ['email', 'calendar', 'knowledge-base'], model: 'gpt-4', temperature: 0.7, }; ``` ### Step 2: Create the Agent ```typescript import { Lindy } from '@lindy-ai/sdk'; const lindy = new Lindy({ apiKey: process.env.LINDY_API_KEY }); async function createAgent(spec: AgentSpec) { const agent = await lindy.agents.create({ name: spec.name, description: spec.description, instructions: spec.instructions, tools: spec.tools, config: { model: spec.model || 'gpt-4', temperature: spec.temperature || 0.7, }, }); console.log(`Created agent: ${agent.id}`); return agent; } ``` ### Step 3: Configure Agent Tools ```typescript async function configureTools(agentId: string, tools: string[]) { for (const tool of tools) { await lindy.agents.addTool(agentId, { name: tool, enabled: true, }); } console.log(`Configured ${tools.length} tools`); } ``` ### Step 4: Test the Agent ```typescript async function testAgent(agentId: string) { const testCases = [ 'Hello, I need help with my order', 'Can you check my subscription status?', 'I want to cancel my account', ]; for (const input of testCases) { const result = await lindy.agents.run(agentId, { input }); console.log(`Input: ${input}`); console.log(`Output: ${result.output}\n`); } } ``` ## Output - Fully configured AI agent - Connected tools and integrations - Tested agent responses - Ready for deployment ## Error Handling | Error | Cause | Solution | |-------|-------|----------| | Tool not found | Invalid tool name | Check available tools list | | Instructions too long | Exceeds limit | Summarize or split instructions | | Model unavailable | Unsupported model | Use default gpt-4 | ## Examples ### Complete Agent Creation Flow ```typescript async function main() { // Create agent const agent = await createAgent(agentSpec); // Configure tools await configureTools(agent.id, agentSpec.tools); // Test agent await testAgent(agent.id); console.log(`Agent ${agent.id} is ready!`); } main().catch(console.error); ``` ## Resources - [Lindy Agent Creation](https://docs.lindy.ai/agents/create) - [Available Tools](https://docs.lindy.ai/tools) - [Model Options](https://docs.lindy.ai/models) ## Next Steps Proceed to `lindy-core-workflow-b` for task automation workflows.
