General
Suggest Replies
What it is: A toggle that enables automatic reply suggestions after each agent response.
When to use it: Enable this feature when you want to:
- Keep conversations flowing naturally
- Save time on typing common responses
- Provide users with quick response options
Simply toggle this on, and your agent will offer clickable reply suggestions after each of its messages.
Language Model
What it is: The AI engine that powers your agent’s thinking and communication.
How to choose:
- Default model: Best for most use cases - balanced performance and cost
- Advanced models: May offer improved reasoning but at higher cost
- Specialized models: Optimized for specific tasks like coding or creative writing
Tip: If you’re just getting started, stick with the default model. You can always upgrade later as your needs evolve.
Temperature
What it is: A slider that controls how creative versus predictable your agent’s responses will be.
How to set it:
- Low (0-0.3): More focused, consistent responses - ideal for factual tasks, customer support, or data analysis
- Medium (0.4-0.7): Balanced creativity and precision - good for general conversation
- High (0.8-1.0): More varied, creative responses - better for brainstorming, storytelling, or generating diverse ideas
Example: A sales agent might use lower temperature for explaining product specs, but higher temperature when brainstorming marketing ideas.
Agent Timeout Time
What it is: The maximum time your agent can work on a task before timing out.
How to choose:
- Shorter timeouts: More efficient for simple tasks, saves resources
- Longer timeouts: Necessary for complex reasoning, research tasks, or when working with multiple tools
Consider the complexity of your agent’s typical tasks when setting this value.
Instructions for Naming Tasks
What it is: Guidelines that help your agent create clear, consistent names for new tasks.
Example instructions:
- “Include the customer name and request type in each task name”
- “Use the format: [Project]-[Action]-[Date]”
- “Start with the main goal followed by the specific action needed”
Well-named tasks make your workspace more organized and easier to navigate.
Guide for Using Agent
What it is: Simple instructions shown to users when they start a conversation with your agent.
Best practices:
- Keep it brief (1-3 sentences)
- Explain what the agent can help with
- Include any specific information users should provide
Example: “I’m your research assistant. Tell me what topic you’re exploring, and I’ll help find relevant information and summarize key points.”
Welcome Message
What it is: The first message your agent automatically sends at the start of every new task.
Tips for effective welcome messages:
- Introduce the agent’s purpose
- Set clear expectations
- Include a prompt for the user to get started
Example: “Hi there! I’m Maya, your marketing assistant. I can help draft social posts, brainstorm campaign ideas, or analyze content performance. What would you like to work on today?”
Default Prompt for Parent Agents
What it is: Instructions that guide how other agents should interact with this agent when working together.
When to use it: Configure this when building multi-agent workflows where agents need to collaborate.
This ensures consistent communication between agents and helps maintain workflow integrity.
Max Output Tokens
What it is: A limit on how much text your agent can generate in a single response.
How to configure:
- Lower limits: More concise responses, faster performance, lower cost
- Higher limits: More detailed responses, but may increase processing time
Adjust based on whether you need brief updates or comprehensive explanations from your agent.
Export Agent
What it is: A button that downloads your agent’s complete configuration as a .rai file (JSON format).
When to use it:
- Create backups before making major changes
- Share agent configurations with team members
- Transfer agents between environments
- Create templates for similar agents
Your exported file contains all settings, tools, and configurations.
Agent Autonomy Limit
What it is: The number of consecutive actions your agent can take without human approval.
How to set it:
- Lower values: More human oversight, better for critical or sensitive tasks
- Higher values: More independence, better for routine or time-sensitive workflows
Important: Higher autonomy limits may require longer timeout settings to allow the agent to complete its work.
