Build with the template in 3 steps

The repository is designed to help team start building with standardized code in a productive way, eliminating setup hastles.

1. Open the repo in Bob

After cloning the repo, open it in Bob, scripts are executed automatically to setup wxO ADK environment.

2. Prompt Bob

Prompt Bob with details about your use case, and bob will build the agents & tools in an iterative way.

3. Deploy to wxO

Once agents are built, tested and evaluated, bob can deploy the agents directly to wxO.

Example Prompt/Usage

Copy and paste one of these example prompts into Bob to get started with building your AI agent:
