| 5 | +sidebarTitle: "Tutorial: Your First Agent" |
| 6 | +--- |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +In this tutorial we'll get started with our first Hypermode Agent named |
| 9 | +Sidekick. Sidekick is a personal assistant that can help you with your daily |
| 10 | +tasks, such as scheduling meetings, reviewing our calendar, and preparing for |
| 11 | +meetings by conducting research. |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +Along the way we'll introduce the basic concepts of working with agents in |
| 14 | +Hypermode, including the concepts of [connections](/agents/connections), |
| 15 | +[threads](/agents/work), and [tasks](/agents/tasks). |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +## Sign in to Hypermode |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +First, we'll [sign in to Hypermode](https://hypermode.com/login) and create our |
| 20 | +first workspace if we haven't done that yet. |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +## Meet our Sidekick agent |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +Once we've signed in and created a workspace, we'll meet our Sidekick agent. |
| 27 | +Sidekick is included with the Hypermode free tier and is a great way to get |
| 28 | +started with Hypermode Agents by learning how to interact with agents and add |
| 29 | +[connections](/agents/connections). |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +Connections give our agents access to external tools and services, such as |
| 34 | +Google Calendar, email, GitHub, our CRM, and more. |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +## Sidekick connections |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +Let's configure the Google Calendar connection so Sidekick can access our |
| 39 | +calendar and help us prepare for meetings. |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +<Tip> |
| 42 | + Sidekick is configured to connect to Google Calendar. Over 2000 other |
| 43 | + connections are available by upgrading to the Hypermode Pro tier. |

| 50 | + |
| 51 | +## Suggestion task |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +Sidekick is configured with [tasks](/agents/tasks) to help us interact with our |
| 54 | +agent. Tasks are a repeatable set of instructions that you can save and use |
| 55 | +later with your agent. Think of a task as a learned skill for your agent. |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +## Chat and tools |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +In addition to selecting tasks, we can also interact with our agent through |
| 62 | +natural language chat. The agent uses tools to complete our requests. By asking |
| 63 | +the agent "who are we meeting with?" it uses the Google Calendar connection to |
| 64 | +access our calendar and find the meeting we're preparing for. |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +## Prepare for meetings |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | +Tools can be combined by the agent to complete our requests. Here we ask |
| 71 | +Sidekick to prepare for our meetings by researching who we're scheduled to meet |
| 72 | +with. Sidekick uses the Google Calendar connection to access our calendar and |
| 73 | +find the meeting we're preparing for, extracts the meeting details including |
| 74 | +other participants, then uses a built-in research tool to research the |
| 75 | +participants. |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | + |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +## Generate talking points |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +We can ask Sidekick to generate talking points for our meeting. Sidekick uses |
| 82 | +the results of the research tool and our specific guidance to generate talking |
| 83 | +points. |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | + |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +## Update calendar invite |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +We can ask Sidekick to update our calendar invite with the talking points we |
| 92 | +just generated. Sidekick uses the Google Calendar connection to update our |
| 93 | +invite. |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | + |
| 96 | + |
| 97 | +## Writing to other services |
| 98 | + |
| 99 | +Sidekick is configured to connect to Google Calendar. To enable other |
| 100 | +connections you'll need to upgrade to the |
| 101 | +[Hypermode Pro tier](https://hypermode.com/pricing). |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | + |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +Explore other ways that Sidekick can help you in your daily tasks. When you're |
| 106 | +ready to explore creating new agents with new capabilities and adding other |
| 107 | +connections, upgrade to the Hypermode Pro tier by scheduling your onboarding |
| 108 | +call. |
| 109 | + |
| 110 | + |
| 111 | + |
| 112 | +Creating more custom agents from natural language, choosing over 2000 additional |
| 113 | +connections to add to our agent, and more are features available in the |
| 114 | +Hypermode Pro tier. Once you've completed the Pro-tier onboarding you'll be able |
| 115 | +to create agents with custom instructions. In the mean time check out the |
| 116 | +[Agent Gallery](/agents/example-agents) to see what kinds of agents you'll be |
| 117 | +able to create with [Hypermode Agents Pro tier](https://hypermode.com/pricing). |
