# Templates

> The starting persona and toolset for your agent: General, Sales, Social, or Prediction Markets.

A **template** is the lane you pick when you create an agent (step 3 of the wizard). One choice seeds two things at once:

* **The persona.** A focus block that defines the agent's job and how it behaves, folded into its brief together with the role and tone you type.
* **The toolset.** The capabilities provisioned into the agent's private runtime, tuned to that job. A focused template never gets *extra* tools; it gets a sharper subset of the full set.

<Note>
  The template is a **create-time choice**: it is baked into the agent when it's provisioned, and an existing agent can't be switched to a different template later. To change lanes, deploy a new agent. (The persona *text* itself stays editable in Settings at any time.)
</Note>

## The four templates

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="General" icon="asterisk">
    The default. No lane: the full capability set and a neutral brief. Best when the job is unique, or when you plan to write your own persona.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Sales" icon="handshake">
    Prospects, qualifies, and reaches out. Uses its memory as a lightweight CRM and moves every conversation toward a call, demo, or purchase.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Social" icon="megaphone">
    Plans, writes, and publishes content in your voice, and keeps up with mentions across your connected channels.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Prediction Markets" icon="chart-line">
    A prediction-markets analyst. Researches events, reasons to a committed pick, and reads live Polymarket prices.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Capabilities by template

Every template ships with web search, files and a terminal, persistent memory, skills, and scheduled tasks. The differences:

| Capability                  | General | Sales | Social | Prediction |
| --------------------------- | :-----: | :---: | :----: | :--------: |
| Web search & research       |    ✓    |   ✓   |    ✓   |      ✓     |
| Persistent memory           |    ✓    |   ✓   |    ✓   |      ✓     |
| Scheduled tasks             |    ✓    |   ✓   |    ✓   |      ✓     |
| Vision (understands images) |    ✓    |   ✗   |    ✓   |      ✗     |
| Browse the skill hub        |    ✓    |   ✗   |    ✗   |      ✗     |

Focused templates deliberately drop what their job doesn't need: a sales agent has no reason to browse the skill hub, and vision stays where images actually matter (social content, and the general all-rounder).

## Sales

Built to fill a pipeline, not to spam one.

* **Prospects and qualifies.** Researches a lead or company before reaching out and notes *why* they fit.
* **Reaches out for real.** With LinkedIn [connected](/agents/channels) (X is days away), it drafts personalized outreach and follow-ups and sends them once you approve. Every message is matched to the person; it never blasts a generic template.
* **Memory as CRM.** Tracks who it contacted, what they said, and the next step (prospect, stage, last touch, next action) in its persistent memory.
* **Follow-up cadences.** Add a recurring task on the Tasks board and it runs the follow-up round automatically each time it fires.

Anything sent under your name (a public post or a private DM) needs your approval first, and a "no" from a prospect is respected.

## Social

A social media manager that keeps you present without sounding like a bot wrote it.

* **Creates content.** Native posts per platform (punchy for X, more substantive for LinkedIn), hooks, threads, and hashtags. One idea becomes several platform-native posts, with web search for current context.
* **Publishes.** With LinkedIn connected (X is days away), it posts once you approve; drafts always land with you first. Put publishing on a calendar with a recurring task.
* **Engages.** Reads recent mentions and replies on connected channels and drafts on-brand responses for your approval.
* **Stays consistent.** Keeps voice and cadence steady, and tracks what it has already posted in memory so it doesn't repeat itself.
* **Sees images.** Vision is included, since visuals are core to social content.

## Prediction Markets

An analyst identity, not a general assistant with market data bolted on. It thinks in odds, edges, and catalysts.

* **Research first.** Form, injuries, referees, weather, head-to-head, stakes, news: it builds its own read from fundamentals. Market prices are one input (sentiment and payout reference), never the center of the analysis.
* **Commits to a pick.** It gives you *its* winner with its own probabilities and the decisive factors, and re-examines honestly when you push back: it neither digs in nor caves.
* **Reads live markets.** A built-in Polymarket skill pulls live markets, prices, volume, and history, and the agent hands you the direct link to the exact market so you land one click from acting.
* **Verifiable sports data (preview).** With [TxLINE](/agents/txline) enabled, it reads Solana-anchored live odds, runs a deterministic sharp-movement detector, and anchors its committed picks on Solana.
* **Odds cards in chat.** Markets render as visual odds cards (outcomes, implied probabilities, the agent's pick highlighted) right in the dashboard chat.
* **Monitors over time.** A recurring task turns it into a watcher: it re-runs on schedule and alerts you on a connected channel when odds move or a catalyst hits.

<Note>
  Prediction agents give **research, not financial advice**. They never take custody of funds, sign transactions, or place positions. The agent surfaces the opportunity; you decide and execute.
</Note>

## Templates and your own brief

A template is a seed, not a cage:

* The **role and tone** you type in the wizard are folded into the template's brief.
* Pasting a **full custom persona** (up to \~8,000 characters) replaces the template's brief entirely. The template still decides the toolset.
* After deploy, the persona stays editable in the agent's Settings.
