## What is AI Agent

AI Agent enables GenAI-powered conversational flows using natural-language objectives and actions. It allows bots to handle free-flow conversations beyond predefined NLP intents.

## How to Enable AI Agent

1. Open your bot 
2. Go to **Settings → Solution Settings** 
3. Enable **AI Agent** **(Bot Mandate)**.
4. Read and confirm the behavior in the modal.

Once enabled, **AI Agent Studio** appears in the left navigation as **Agents**.

**Note**: If the feature might not be available on your bot, please reach out to your respective Account Manager to get it enabled.

## How to Configure AI Agent 

When the AI Agent is enabled:

- A **default workflow** is auto-created: 
  - Supervisor node 
  - Example sub-goal nodes 
    - One Normal AI Agent
    - One FAQ AI Agent (For Exomind)

All three with Sample prompts 

- You can edit: 
  - Objectives 
  - Routing logic 
  - Node Names
  - Add or delete the nodes based on your requirements

### Important Configuration Note

- To use NLP + AI together, enable **AI Intent Assist** for better results.

## How to Use Existing Default Flows

- Use the Supervisor node to route queries 
- Customize sub-goal prompts for your use case 
- Add actions like: 
  - Exomind (knowledge base) 
  - APIs 
- Deploy the bot after changes 

The default setup is designed as a **starter template** that can be extended.

## How to Test an AI Agent

- Test open-ended user queries, ask general queries like - What can you do? How can you help me?
  - It will provide an answer related to the topic and the use case it is trained on.
- Validate routing to correct sub-goals 
- Test fallback behavior 
- If Exomind is used, verify factual accuracy by asking any question from the trained file.
- Test with AI Intent Assist ON and OFF to confirm expected behavior
