What is Agent Builder?
Agent Builder is the core building area of the MaiAgent platform. Here, you can combine different modules to create AI Agents capable of answering questions, querying data, and executing tasks.
Big Picture: How the Agent Relates to Each Module
The Agent is the core brain, responsible for understanding user questions and generating responses. The other modules extend the Agent's capabilities — the Knowledge Base gives it specialized knowledge to reference, the Database lets it query structured data, Tools let it perform actions, Skills let it follow SOPs for complex tasks, and Agent Scheduling lets it run tasks automatically on a timer. The Crawler is one of the data sources for the Knowledge Base.

Recommended Build Order
If this is your first time using MaiAgent, follow this order:
You don't need to configure all modules at once. Start with Agent + Knowledge Base, then gradually expand capabilities.
