Build Your First AI Agent

The simplest way to get a conversational AI agent running in Heym. Type a message, the Agent replies, and conversation history is preserved across turns so every follow-up stays in context.

What this workflow does

  1. YourMessage — type any question or command
  2. ChatAgent — processes your input with a helpful assistant persona and built-in memory
  3. AgentReply — surfaces the final answer

Use cases

  • Learning how Heym Agent nodes work before adding integrations
  • Prototyping a chatbot before wiring it to Telegram, Slack, or a web channel
  • Exploring prompt engineering with a live feedback loop

Setup

  1. Open the ChatAgent node and connect an OpenAI-compatible credential.
  2. Edit the system instruction to change the persona, language, or domain focus.
  3. Run the workflow manually from the editor — type your message in the YourMessage node and click Run.

Notes

  • The Agent node keeps a rolling conversation buffer across manual runs in the same session.
  • Swap GLM-4.7 for any OpenAI-compatible model in the Agent node model dropdown.
  • To add Telegram or Slack as the trigger, replace YourMessage with a TelegramTrigger or SlackTrigger node.
