Praison AI

What is an agent

Note: An agent does not run until you give it a task. The next pages install PraisonAI, then start one.

One agent, one job

An agent is one autonomous helper with a job. You tell it who it is, then you tell it what to do.

PraisonAI calls that helper an Agent. A team of helpers is a separate idea, on a later page.

Example

from praisonai import Agent

agent = Agent(instructions="You are a helpful assistant")
print(type(agent).__name__)

Try it Yourself

Example explained

  • Agent — The name of this kind of helper. The example writes it as Agent.
  • instructions — Who the agent is. In the docs this is called the system prompt.
