Advanced Agent Features

Organize and manage your agents with pinning, duplication, owner transfer, and conversation starters.

Beyond the core configuration options, Odeus provides several features to help you organize agents across your workspace, manage ownership, and improve the user experience.

Pinning Agents

Pinned agents are your personal favorites, giving you quick access to the agents you use most often.

How to Pin an Agent

1. Find the agent you want to pin in the library or search results
2. Click the pin icon on the agent card
3. The agent is now pinned to your personal list

To unpin an agent, click the pin icon again.

Accessing Pinned Agents

Pinned agents appear in a dedicated section for quick access. This is personal to your account, so each user can customize their own pinned agents without affecting others.

Pinning is user-specific. Your pinned agents are visible only to you and don't change anything for other users in the workspace.

Agent Duplication

Duplicating an agent creates a copy that you can modify independently. This is useful for creating variations of an existing agent or using a colleague's agent as a starting point.

How to Duplicate an Agent

1. Open the agent you want to duplicate (you need at least editor access)
2. Click the duplicate option in the agent menu
3. Enter a name for your new agent
4. The duplicate is created with you as the owner

What Gets Copied

When you duplicate an agent, the new copy includes:

• Name: Your chosen name for the duplicate
• Instructions: The full system instructions
• Input configuration: Input type, form fields, and conversation starters
• Tools: Web search and connector actions (without pre-selected connections)
• Model: The selected model
• Folders: Links to attached folders
• Attachments: Direct file attachments and their embeddings

Pre-selected connections on actions are cleared when duplicating. You'll need to set up your own connections after duplication.

What Doesn't Get Copied

• Sharing settings: The duplicate starts with only you as the owner
• Usage history: The duplicate starts fresh

Owner Transfer

Sometimes you need to reassign ownership of an agent to another team member. This might happen when someone leaves the team, changes roles, or when an agent should be maintained by someone else.

How to Transfer Ownership

1. Open the agent (you need editor access or admin permissions)
2. Go to the sharing settings
3. Search for the new owner by name
4. Select the user and confirm the transfer

The new owner must be a member of the same workspace. After transfer:

• The new owner gets full owner permissions
• The previous owner's access is removed
• All sharing settings remain intact

Workspace admins can also transfer ownership of any agent in the workspace through admin settings.

Conversation Starters

Conversation starters are pre-defined prompts that users can click to begin a conversation. They guide users toward effective interactions and reduce the barrier to getting started.

What They Are

Conversation starters appear as clickable buttons when a user starts a new chat with your agent. Instead of typing a message from scratch, users can select one of these prompts to begin.

They're especially useful for:

• Showcasing what the agent can do
• Guiding users toward common use cases
• Reducing friction for new users
• Ensuring consistent, high-quality initial prompts

How to Configure Them

1. Open your agent in edit mode
2. Make sure the input type is set to Prompt (not Form)
3. Find the conversation starters section
4. Add your starter prompts

Property	Limit
Conversation starters per agent	20
Each conversation starter	255 characters
Attachments per agent	20

Write conversation starters that demonstrate specific capabilities. Instead of generic prompts like "Help me with something," use specific examples like "Summarize the key points from our Q3 sales report" that show users exactly what the agent can do.

Best Practices

• Be specific: Vague starters don't help users understand capabilities
• Cover different use cases: Show the range of what your agent can do
• Keep them concise: Long starters can overwhelm users
• Update regularly: Refresh starters based on how users actually interact with the agent

Conversation starters only appear for agents using the Prompt input type. Form-based agents collect structured input instead.
