Choose how you bootstrap and refine an Agent Graph. Both methods use the same canvas, drawer, and SaveBuild workflow.

Phinite Aura (prompt-based)

Aura turns a plain-language goal into a draft canvas — nodes, edges, tool hints, and variable suggestions.
  1. Open Graph Studio or start New Agent Graph.
  2. Open Phinite Aura in the left sidebar (often open by default with Agent Graph Context Active).
  3. Describe goal, inputs, knowledge sources, tools, and expected outputs.
  4. Review proposed builds/edits; apply when ready; validate each node drawer (Details, RAG, Tools, Variables).
  5. Refine on the canvas, then Save.

Graph Studio with Phinite Aura and canvas

Name relevant RAG collections and Tools in your Aura prompt for better first drafts.
Before Save, confirm a clear path from Start to End and that branch edge labels match your design (Connections).

Manual canvas

Use the manual canvas for full control over placement, edge order, and drawer configuration.
  1. New Agent Graph → choose Conversational or AutonomousCreate.
  2. Add nodes from the floating canvas palette (Node types).
  3. Connect edges (Connections).
  4. Configure the drawer (Agent configuration).
  5. Test from the toolbar, then Save.

Iterate

  1. Run sample inputs from Test.
  2. Refine prompts, RAG, and variables.
  3. Adjust conditional edges for branching graphs.
  4. Save after each meaningful change.
