This guide will walk you through creating your Bindu agent step by step. Think of this as a conversation where we’ll ask about your needs and preferences, then generate a complete, production-ready AI agent based on your answers. The setup process is designed to be intuitive - just answer each question and we’ll handle the technical details. By the end, you’ll have a fully configured agent ready to deploy.
