Quickstart
Create your cloudrun workspace, deploy a project, and talk to your first agent.
Quickstart
From nothing to a running agent you can chat with.
1. Create your workspace
Sign in and create an organization. This is your workspace — members, projects, and agents all live under it.
2. Create a project
Create a project and cloudrun provisions its first engine — a Hermes runtime on its own box, restored from a prebuilt snapshot with a default agent ready. The creation screen holds while it comes up, usually a minute or two.
3. Talk to your agent
Click the agent's node on the canvas to open it. The Overview tab is a chat — send a message and the agent replies, streaming, with its tool calls shown inline.
Give the box a moment after provisioning. Until the runtime is up, the chat can't load its session history and the composer stays inactive.
4. Give it tools
From the profile, open Integrations and connect a service (Gmail, Slack, GitHub, and more). Connect once and the agent can act through it.
Then try Skills for instruction packs, and Tools for toolsets and MCP servers.
5. Put it on a schedule
Open Automations and add one. Pick a prompt, a cron schedule, and where the result is delivered. The agent now runs unattended.
6. Reach it from anywhere
Open Channels to connect Telegram, Slack, email, or any of the other supported platforms. Once connected, you can message the agent outside cloudrun entirely.
Invite your team
Under Settings → Organization, invite teammates by email and set a role (admin or member).
