# Get started with the Agentic studio

> [!important]
> The new Agentic studio UI is being rolled out in phases. Your organization may not see the updated UI and related features yet. It will become available when your environment is included in the rollout.

Start your [Agentic studio](https://doc.sitecore.com/sai/en/users/sitecoreai/working-with-agentic-studio/working-with-agentic-studio.html) experience on the **Overview** page where you'll find everything you need to ideate, create briefs, plan, and execute campaigns with intelligent assistance. From here, you can ask AI for help, automate individual tasks, coordinate multi-step workflows, or continue previous work.

To access the **Overview** page, in the navigation menu, click **Agentic** and then, in the left sidebar, click :mdiSpeedometer: **Overview**. Begin by following this basic workflow:

1. In the Chat interface, enter a prompt that uses natural language and states a clear outcome. Keep your prompt simple and concise. Be sure to specify important keywords and constraints.
2. Choose an agent if the task you want to complete is specific.
3. Add context if the output needs to respect brand context, brand kit, or requires source material.
4. Submit your request.
5. Click the generated artifact to review the output.
​​6. As required, repeat and refine your request.

To learn about the various tools available, see the [Agentic studio toolkit](https://doc.sitecore.com/sai/en/users/sitecoreai/working-with-agentic-studio/get-started-with-the-agentic-studio/the-agentic-studio-toolkit.html "The Agentic Studio toolkit").

## Chat

The Chat at the top of the **Overview** page is a conversational workspace where you can collaborate with AI to think, create, solve, and explore. Use it to develop ideas, refine messaging, make decisions, and run the most appropriate agent or tool.

To guide the chat conversation, start by selecting an agent if you want the AI agent to complete a specific task. Then, provide the agent with the context and source material it needs to process your request. The following capabilities determine which information the chat uses, which actions it takes, and how requests are processed.

| Icon | Capability | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| :mdiLightningBoltOutline: | Select an agent | Choose a [prebuilt](https://doc.sitecore.com/sai/en/users/sitecoreai/working-with-agentic-studio/understanding-agents/understanding-agents.html#available-agents) or [custom agent](https://doc.sitecore.com/sai/en/users/sitecoreai/working-with-agentic-studio/understanding-agents/create-a-workflow-agent/create-a-workflow-agent.html) to handle your task. Depending on the agent, you may need to configure *parameters* and can optionally select [items](https://doc.sitecore.com/sai/en/users/sitecoreai/working-with-agentic-studio/understanding-agents/run-an-agent/use-items-when-running-agents.html) (pages, artifacts briefs, or CSV files) for the agent to act on. |
| :mdiBookOpenBlankVariantOutline: | Add context | Add sources that ground the AI. This helps it better understand your request and produce more relevant results. Context represents the information used to guide and inform the AI, giving you more control over how outputs are generated. |
| :mdiLightningBoltOutline: | Skills & Tools | Add reusable [agent skills](https://doc.sitecore.com/sai/en/users/sitecoreai/working-with-agentic-studio/understanding-agents/agent-skills.html) for specialized tasks. These can include custom or system skills, such as campaign planning, competitive analysis, or CSV and text extraction. Skills are created in Agentic studio **settings**. All users can create skills; however, only *Admins* can share them. Enable agents to perform actions in SitecoreAI using natural language. This includes retrieving and managing sites, creating and updating pages, editing content, and other marketing tasks. Use official [Sitecore documentation](https://doc.sitecore.com/) as reference material. This helps the AI give accurate, product-specific answers and cite trusted Sitecore sources. Use built-in chat tools to extend what the AI can do. For a list of Agentic Studio tools, see the [Agentic Studio toolkit](https://doc.sitecore.com/sai/en/users/sitecoreai/working-with-agentic-studio/get-started-with-the-agentic-studio/the-agentic-studio-toolkit.html). |
| :mdiNoteTextOutline: | Items | [Add items](https://doc.sitecore.com/sai/en/users/sitecoreai/working-with-agentic-studio/understanding-agents/run-an-agent/use-items-when-running-agents.html) such pages, content items, artifacts, and external files to use in support of the conversation. This icon is available when you open an agent from the **Agents** page. |
| :mdiTune: | Parameters | Set parameters, such as channels, target audiences, and content formats. This icon is available when you open an agent from the **Agents** page. |
| :mdiPaperclip: | Attach files | Add one or more files related to your request. The AI can use attached briefs, documents, or drafts to generate more accurate and tailored responses. |
| :mdiChip:| Model type | Select the default, fast, or expert [model type](https://doc.sitecore.com/sai/en/users/sitecoreai/working-with-agentic-studio/understanding-chat/chat-features-and-tools.html#select-the-type-of-model-for-processing) to control how AI handles your request. |
| :mdiArrowUpCircleOutline: | Submit | Click to submit your prompt and generate a response. |

After you submit your request and it has been processed, the generated artifacts are available on the [Chat page](https://doc.sitecore.com/sai/en/users/sitecoreai/working-with-agentic-studio/understanding-chat/understanding-chat.html "Understanding chat"). Click an artifact to open it and review the contents. You can continue the conversation and refine outputs, copy results, or ask follow-up questions or copy the chat to a space for collaboration and further work.
