## About

Outside Agent turns a plain-language brief into a hosted AI agent you can publish to SMS, voice, and web without leaving your coding agent. Describe what the agent should do and it composes the full configuration, grounds it in your own content, runs a safety review, and ships it. Create agents, seed a knowledge base, preview replies before publishing, issue a phone number, and manage everything you’ve built, all through natural conversation.

## How to use

1. **Add it in ChatGPT** Open Outside Agent in ChatGPT's Plugin directory (button above), select + to add it and sign in if asked.

2. **Use it in a chat** Type @ in the composer and pick Outside Agent, or start your message with its name. ChatGPT may also suggest it when it fits what you ask.

## Skills

- **build-an-agent**: Use when the user wants to build, configure, or publish an Outside Agent — a hosted AI agent that talks to end users over SMS, voice, and web. Drives the outside-agent MCP tools end to end.

## Example prompts

- "Build me a customer-support agent for my business and publish it"
- "What can Outside Agent build?"
- "Publish my agent to SMS and give it a phone number"
