Agent crew setup

Setting up an Agent Crew in ZBrain Builder starts with defining the foundational details of your crew. You begin by naming the crew, selecting the orchestration framework, choosing the language model, and configuring access permissions. These initial settings establish the operational context and determine how the crew will run.

Once the basic details are set, you move on to defining the structure of the crew, starting with a supervisor agent and adding child agents beneath it. Each agent can be configured with tools, prompts, and external system connections. This structured approach ensures that tasks are clearly distributed and executed according to the defined logic.

Step 1: Accessing Agent Crew in ZBrain Builder

Before setting up an Agent Crew, follow these steps to reach the development interface:

  1. Access the platform dashboard: Log in to ZBrain and open the main dashboard.

  2. Navigate to the agents section: From the top navigation, locate and click on the ‘Agents’ section.

  3. Initiate crew creation: Click the 'Create New' button. A dropdown will appear with two options:

    • Create Agent

    • Create Agent Crew

  1. Select ‘Create Agent Crew’: Choose ‘Create Agent Crew’ to begin building a multi-agent system. This opens the Agent Crew development interface, starting at the ‘Crew Overview’ step.

Step 2: Provide crew details

Agent Crew development begins at the ‘Crew Overview’ interface. In this step, you define the foundational details for your Agent Crew. This includes the crew's name, orchestration framework, model, and access control settings.

  • Crew name: Provide a short, meaningful name for the crew. This is how it will appear throughout the platform. Example: Travel agent

  • Crew description (optional): Use this field to describe the purpose of the crew. This helps collaborators understand their role.

  • Framework: Select the orchestration framework for your Agent Crew. Supported options include LangGraph and Google ADK.

  • Model: Select the language model that will power agent interactions. Supported providers include OpenAI, Google Gemini, Claude AI, Groq, Meta AI, Custom models and ZBrain models. Users can choose specific variants under each provider. For example: Google Gemini - gemini-1.5-pro, gemini-1.5-flash, gemini-2.0-flash-exp

  • Crew access type: Define who can access the operator dashboard for this crew:

    • Public crew: Anyone with the link can operate the crew.

    • Private crew: Access is limited to invited operators.

After setting the foundational details for your Agent Crew, you can click ‘Next’ to continue configuring agents and defining the orchestration logic.
