Agents are the core of Orka. Each agent is an AI assistant with its own personality, instructions, and access to specific datastores.

​
Create an Agent

  1. Navigate to Agents in the sidebar
  2. Click Create Agent
  3. Fill in the basic details:
    • Name — A descriptive name for your agent
    • Description — What this agent does
    • System Prompt — Instructions that define the agent’s behavior

​
Connect Datastores

Agents need at least one datastore to search. In the agent configuration:
  1. Go to the Datastores tab
  2. Select one or more datastores to connect
  3. The agent will search across all connected datastores when answering questions
An agent can be connected to multiple datastores, but each datastore can also be shared across multiple agents.

​
System Prompts

The system prompt defines how your agent behaves. Good system prompts:
  • Define the agent’s role and tone
  • Specify what the agent should and shouldn’t do
  • Include instructions for handling edge cases
You are a helpful financial analyst assistant. Answer questions
about company filings using only the provided context. If the
answer is not in the context, say so clearly.

Use the built-in chat interface to test your agent before deploying it via the API.
