Action
Assistant Creation
Tool to create a new assistant. Use when you need to register a uniquely named assistant in Griptape Cloud before initiating runs.
Why this helps
Using one generic assistant for every research effort can blur context and make it harder to keep tasks organized.
- Create a named assistant at the start of a research stream.
- Give future runs a clearer purpose and home.
- Reduce repeated setup decisions for similar projects.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Exa and Griptape to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create a prompt that uses the incoming research-stream context to choose a unique assistant name and create it in Griptape.
- 3Select an incoming webhook trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 4Send a test request and confirm the new assistant is uniquely named before using it.
Questions about this workflow
When should I create a dedicated assistant?
Use this when an approved research stream needs its own assistant before runs begin.
