 "title": "Create a custom agent by describing it",
 "page_title": "How to create a custom agent by describing it with Nami",
 "summary": "Describe the job in plain words and get a ready-to-run agent on your shelf in seconds.",
 "who": "A small business owner who needs a repeatable helper, such as an invoice sorter, and does not want to write configuration by hand.",
 "problem": "Setting up a reusable agent usually means writing config files or code, which blocks people who are not engineers.",
 "outcome": "A new agent appears on your shelf, ready to run on the folder you chose, with no manual setup.",
 "steps": [
  "Install Nami and open it, then point it at the folder where the work lives.",
  "Describe the agent you want in plain words, for example what it should read and what it should produce.",
  "Wait for the agent to appear on your shelf.",
  "Run the new agent on one sample item from the folder.",
  "Check the output against the sample before you run it on the full set."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the Nami repo at mrdainami/nami, describe a new agent that sorts invoices in <target-folder> and confirm it appears on the agent shelf. Expected output: the new agent listed and runnable with a short sorted result for one invoice. Verify the agent only touched files inside <target-folder>.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Beginner",
 "time": "15 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README describes creating agents in plain words but does not explain how the generated agent is tested or reviewed, so check its output yourself.",

 "requirements": [
  "A Mac running macOS 13 or later, or a Windows 10 or later PC",
  "Subscriptions for the agents you want to use, since Nami runs on the subscriptions you already pay for",
  "On Windows, Git and Node for agents that install through them (Nami tells you when one is missing)",
  "For building from source: Git, Node and npm"
