How to create an agent for a Delos application?

  1. Choose the target application (Assistant, Scribe, Slides, Tables, Code, Calendar, Drive)
  2. Define the agent's role: what problem should it solve?
  3. Write the instructions: be specific about behavior, style, expected tasks
  4. Add reference documents or templates if necessary
  5. Enable relevant capabilities for the application (e.g., text generation for Scribe, slide creation for Slides…)
  6. Test the agent with real scenarios to validate its operation

Best practices

  • Precise instructions: the more detailed your prompt, the better the agent will perform
  • Up-to-date templates: keep your templates and reference documents updated
  • Limited capabilities: only enable features the agent needs
  • Regular testing: validate the agent on typical use cases
