AI Agents Configuration

Agent settings define how an AI team member runs inside TheTeam. Configuration includes runtime type, provider and model, instructions, evolving identity text, assigned skills, available tools, and operation approvals.

Instructions and Evolving Context

Agent instructions define the base behavior for sessions. Identity and refinement context can accumulate rules, remembered agreements, and evolving instructions over time.

Skills and Tools

Agents can have assigned skills and available tools. Skills can be managed directly and can also change through team evolution and refinements.
