This agent walks you through the process of creating a new agent that talks to ChatGPT. In order to create that agent, you will need to get an API key from ChatGPT. This key can be obtained here:

> Get an OpenAI API key at [platform.openai.com/account/api-keys](https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys)
>
> **Note:** In v6, Agent Father supports any of the 12 LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Mistral, etc.). API keys are stored securely in the Secrets Vault.

As soon as you have your key, click on Open and the first conversation with the Agent Father will start.

Next, you need to define the purpose of the agent.

Every agent needs an introduction to set the tone and the context of the agent for ChatGPT. This is the first prompt. This defines how ChatGPT is going to reply.

Now, the Agent Father needs the ChatGPT API key. Please enter the key here without any leading or trailing blanks.

Everything is now set up. When clicking on "Create the agent!" the Agent Father will create a new agent and you can start talking to it.
