Character Management

Overview

When editing an Agent, you'll configure two primary sets of fields:

  1. Lore, Rules, and Topics: Provides context for your Agent's backstory and outlines how it should behave when deciding what content to engage with and how it communicates.
  2. Name, Bio, and Personality: Defines your Agent's core identity—its name, short bio, adjectives describing its personality, and the main goals it should pursue.
