Create an AI Coworker
Set up an AI coworker for one kind of work: a name, a job and the instructions it follows.
What it is
An AI coworker is a saved setup: a name and icon, a job, and instructions in plain words about what to do, how, and what to ask you first. You can create one from a form or by asking in a chat; nothing is saved until you click Create.
When to use it
| Create an AI coworker when | A skill or plain chat is enough when |
|---|---|
| The same kind of work comes back often, with the same rules | You need one method, not a whole job: make a skill |
| Several people should handle that work the same way | The job is one-off |
| You want that work kept in its own chats |
How to use it
- Open the AI Employees tab and click Create Your AI Employee. A form opens in the chat.
- Choose an icon: Shape, Color and Eyes, or click Random.
- Fill in Name (name it by its job, such as "Weekly reports") and Role (the job, in a few words).
- In Talk about this employee, write what the AI coworker should do, how, and what it must ask you before acting.
- Save to: This computer (only you, everywhere), or This workspace (kept with the current workspace folder).
- Click Create. The AI coworker appears on the rail and writes its greeting (Writing a greeting…).
You can also type, for example, "Create an AI coworker that drafts weekly reports". The AI asks for a name and the job, then shows the same form for you to check and Create.
Example
In your sales team's workspace you create "Reports" with the role "weekly sales report". Under Talk about this employee you write: "Every Monday, read last week's order export in the workspace, write the report in our usual layout, and ask before sending it to anyone." You save it to This workspace, so everyone who opens the folder gets it.
Limits and permissions
- This workspace is only available when a workspace is open.
- The skills you mention guide the AI coworker; it can also use your other skills.
- An AI coworker cannot be published by an institution in 0.1.41; share it through a workspace folder instead.
If something goes wrong
| What you see | What to do |
|---|---|
| This workspace cannot be chosen | Choose a workspace first, then create the AI coworker |
| The AI coworker does the job differently each time | Make the instructions more specific, or turn the method into a skill |
| You created it in the wrong place | Create it again with the right Save to, and delete the other one |
