# Build your own Fimo agent

_Describe a job only your team has in a chat, and Fimo drafts an agent with its instructions and routines. Review it, then make it live._

Every business has jobs that only fit its own workflow, such as a weekly newsletter or a check of your product catalog.

Now you can give one of those jobs [its own agent](/features/agents). Describe it in a chat, and Fimo drafts the agent, with its instructions and its routines.

Ask for changes, then click Create agent. Nothing touches your site until you do. Once live, it runs on a schedule or when something happens on your site.

## Describe the job in a chat

Select + above the chat list, then New agent. The agent asks what it should do, with a few one-click answers. Then it drafts itself: its name, a one-line summary for your team, its instructions and its routines, together on one card.

## Nothing changes until you say so

Ask for changes in the chat, or select Edit to change the draft by hand. Until you select Create agent, only you see the draft, and it changes nothing on your site. Anyone can set up a draft. Making it live is part of the [Pro plan](/pricing). [Read the release notes](https://fimo.ai/docs/changelog/2026-10-28-your-own-agent)

## It runs on its own

Once live, your team shares the agent like any chat, listed under Agents in the chat list. Its routines start, on a schedule or when something happens on your site. When you give no exact time for a routine, Fimo picks the minute within the hour you meant. [See how routines run](https://fimo.ai/docs/studio/ai-chat#routines)

## It keeps its own instructions

Tell the agent “Don’t flag posts under /news, add that to your instructions”, and it updates them. The chat shows Updated instructions with View change. The agent’s Instruction history keeps every change, who made it and when, with Restore previous. [Change an agent’s instructions](https://fimo.ai/docs/studio/ai-chat#give-an-agent-a-job)
