This guide walks through creating an agent in the SeekrFlow UI.

Before you begin

  • Decide which model to use – see Models for guidance on base models and fine-tuned deployments.
  • If using file search, create a vector store first – see Create a vector store.

Create the agent

1
Navigate to Agent Builder > Agents in the sidebar.
2
Click Create Agent.
3
Enter the agent details:
  • Name – A unique identifier for the agent
  • Instructions – The system prompt that defines how the agent responds. Be specific about the task, expected behavior, and any constraints.
  • Reasoning mode – Choose based on your use case:
    • Speed-optimized – For straightforward tasks requiring quick responses
    • Performance-optimized – For complex tasks requiring deeper analysis
For more on reasoning modes, see Agents.
4
Select a model:
  • Base models – Pre-trained models hosted on the SeekrFlow platform
  • Deployments – Your fine-tuned models (must have an active deployment)
5
Configure tools (optional). For available tools, see Tools. For each tool, provide tool instructions that tell the agent when to use it.If adding file search:a. Select a vector store containing your documents.

b. Set Top K – Number of results to retrieve (5–10 for precision, 20–50 for broader coverage).

c. Set Score threshold – Minimum similarity score (0.7–0.9 for strict relevance, 0.2–0.5 for exploratory searches).
6
Review your configuration and click Create Agent. The agent appears in your agents list with a Pending status while SeekrFlow provisions it. After a few minutes, the status changes to Active and the agent is ready to use.
