Cloning allows users to duplicate AI agents and their configurations. This functionality enables instant deployment and customisation of AI agents.

What Gets Cloned

When you clone an AI agent, the following elements are duplicated:

  • Knowledge base (files)
  • System message
  • LLM parameters
  • Other configurations

Cloning creates an exact copy of the original agent’s setup, providing a quick starting point for customization or deployment.

Cloning and Visibility

The ability to clone an AI agent is governed by two key settings:

  1. Open Source Setting: Determines if others can clone your AI agent.
  2. Visibility Setting: Controls who can access your AI agent.

If your AI agent’s visibility is set to private, it cannot be cloned by others, regardless of the open source setting. Private agents are not visible to other users.

How to Clone an Individual Agent

There are two methods to clone an individual agent:

1

Via Agent Info Modal

Open the agent’s info modal and click the “Clone” button.

2

Via ChatUI

Within the ChatUI, click the clone button in the top right corner.

Cloning Agent Teams

If an agent has AI teammates and is open source, you have the option to clone either the individual agent or the entire Agent Team.

1

Open Info Modal

Open the agent’s info modal.
2

Choose Cloning Option

Select whether to clone the individual agent or the entire Agent Team.

When cloning an entire agent team, every agent within the team will be cloned.

Only “downstream” agents (those to whom the current agent delegates, and their subsequent delegates) will be cloned. “Upstream” agents (those that delegate to the current agent) will not be cloned.

To share a complete team of agents for cloning, share the most upstream agent.

Controlling Cloning Permissions

The ability to clone an agent is determined by its “Open Source” or “Closed Source” status.

1

Access Agent Builder

Open the Agent Builder when creating or editing an agent.

2

Locate Advanced Options

Find the “Advanced Options” section.

3

Set Source Status

Choose between “Open Source” or “Closed Source” and save the Agent.

By default, agents are set to “Open Source”.
