Deploy a built in Agent

​

Deploy directly with meshagent process deploy

meshagent process deploy \
  --service-name my-chatbot \
  --agent-name my-chatbot \
  --channel chat \
  --web-search \
  --storage \
  --room myroom

• the built-in CLI flags describe the agent
• the manifest does not need changes before deployment
• you want to deploy the agent to a room or project from one command

​

Generate a service manifest with meshagent process spec

meshagent process spec \
  --service-name my-chatbot \
  --agent-name my-chatbot \
  --channel chat \
  --web-search \
  --storage > meshagent.yaml

# Deploy into one room
meshagent service create --file meshagent.yaml --room myroom

# Deploy across the whole project
meshagent service create --file meshagent.yaml --global

• you want to review the service manifest before deployment
• you need to customize fields that are not exposed as meshagent process flags
• you want to keep the service definition in source control
