Agent Configuration

For more details, read the detailed agent creation guide: https://docs.langdock.com/resources/assistant-creation

You have the following configuration options to customize your agent:

Icon, Name, and Description

Short descriptive information to identify the agent and describe how it works to other users.

Input Type

There are two input types you can choose from:

Prompt (Default)

The standard chat input field allows users to send any message to the agent and receive a response. You can set conversation starters (saved prompts users can click instead of writing the first message). These help guide users and reduce the effort needed to get started.

Form

A form input field collects information in a structured way (similar to a survey). Forms guide users to understand how much context is necessary for a quality response and collect it in a standardized format that the model can process more easily.

Instructions

Describe what you want to achieve with this agent and define clear instructions. Include as many relevant details and background information as possible. This enables the agent to answer better and more closely to your expectations.

Knowledge

Attach knowledge and files to your agent. You can either upload files from your computer or attach files from the integrations: https://docs.langdock.com/resources/integrations/using-integrations

Actions

Actions are capabilities you can give to your agent. These can be chat capabilities like web search, image generation, or data analysis, or they can be requests the agent can send to other tools (e.g., create an email draft, update a CRM entry, create a support ticket).

Deep Research is only available in regular chats, not when using agents. To use Deep Research, switch to a regular chat session: https://docs.langdock.com/de/product/chat/deep-research

Model

Choose which model this agent will use. For details about choosing the right model, refer to the model guide: https://docs.langdock.com/resources/models

Creativity

AI models choose the next word or token using probabilistic calculations. You can influence how much randomness you allow in generation, which affects creativity levels.

Sharing

In the top right corner of the agent configuration, you’ll find options to share and use the agent. You can share it with anyone in the workspace or assign editing and usage permissions to specific groups or individuals.

Usage Insights

Click the three dots to find usage insights. This section helps agent creators optimize based on user feedback.

  • Analytics shows quantitative insights like user numbers, messages, and conversations over time.

  • Feedback lets you browse user reactions (likes/dislikes) and comments about what needs improvement. Feedback is only shared with the agent creator when users actively choose to share it.

Feedback and analytics are accessible from the Usage Insights area (three dots menu) to help optimize your agent.
