Agents
Prompt
The prompt contains the instructions you write for an agent: its role, responsibilities, tone, and how it should respond to users.
Edit your instructions
Open the agent's Prompt settings and write in the editor.
Your instructions are what the agent reads whenever it responds. Product documentation is accessed through Knowledge, while the full instructions in a skill load when the agent requests that skill. These let you provide product context and task-specific instructions without putting everything in the prompt.
Reference tools, actions, and skills
Type @ in your instructions to open the reference picker. It has three groups:
- Tools: the tools associated with this agent's configuration, including built-in tools.
- Actions: the API actions configured for this agent.
- Skills: the reusable instructions configured for this agent.
A reference does not grant access to a capability. If you remove a grant that an instruction still references, the editor marks the reference as stale — the chip stays visible, dashed and tinted, with its cause in the tooltip, and it is still kept as written. Update or remove it before saving; Teaflask validates references against the agent's configuration and refuses a save that names something the configuration does not give the agent.
See Mentions for the reference syntax.
Test and publish
Save your changes and try the draft in the Playground. Editing or saving the prompt does not replace the published agent configuration. Publish a revision when you want users to receive the updated instructions.

- Skills: reusable instructions that load on demand.
