Agents overview
Agents are AI operators scoped to a project. Activate catalog agents from the dashboard, or build a custom one on the canvas.
Agents dashboard
Open a project to see Your agents: only enabled agents appear as cards. Each card shows connection marks, status (idle, running, needs review), and schedule hints. Create Agent opens the catalog picker; custom agents open the canvas.

Board (default)
Every new project gets Board enabled automatically — capture notes, organize by status, and generate a fix prompt. No wizard or schedule required. Deactivate it from the agent page if you want it off the dashboard.
Activating an agent
- Click Create Agent and pick a kind.
- Complete the wizard (connections, schedule, options).
- Open the agent panel to run, review drafts, or adjust settings.
Some agents require GitHub, a website URL, or a provider before they can turn on. The wizard and activation gates tell you what's missing.
Custom agents
Need something the catalog doesn't cover? Build on the canvas: describe the workflow in chat, or compose triggers, integrations, logic, and actions node by node. See Custom agents.
