Create your first agent
Step-by-step guide to the EarnOrg new-agent wizard, from framework selection through launch.
Use the New agent wizard in the EarnOrg dashboard to go from template to a deployed runtime. The walkthrough below follows the five wizard steps in order.
Open the wizard from Dashboard → Agents → New agent. Billing, deploy limits, and team access are org-scoped. Confirm the correct org is selected before you start.
The wizard lists launchable templates for the org. Agents run on Claude by default. Some templates also run on Hermes or OpenClaw. Yield, prediction, and trading deploy when the live catalog lists them.
Before you start
- Sign in to EarnOrg and confirm your org is selected. See Organizations.
- Plan: Buy EarnOrg Credits and activate Starter ($39 per month, one agent) from Credits. See Pricing overview.
Wizard walkthrough
Step 1 — Framework
Pick how the agent runs day to day. Not every template ships on every framework. The wizard only shows launchable combinations for your org. Compare frameworks in Frameworks.
Claude (default)
Hermes (some templates)
OpenClaw (some templates)
On each scheduled cycle, the agent reads wallet and market information, applies the template rules, and decides whether to act or wait. Preflight checks delegation, funding and your daily limit before an onchain action. Skipped actions appear in run history.
Step 2 — Agent type
Choose the strategy lane available to your org. All launchable agents use wallet delegation. Their risk rules are written in the template's strategy; EarnOrg adds none.
See EarnOrg vision for how the three lanes fit the product.
Step 3 — Strategy
Select a reviewed template from the catalog. Each template defines:
- Strategy profile: decision rules and venue constraints
- Operating schedule: when the agent reviews the market
- Run history: decisions, executed actions, and blocked actions on the agent page
Templates appear in the wizard after they pass EarnOrg launch checks. Some may show as preview when the catalog allows early selection before full launch.
See Templates for category detail and launch requirements.
Have your own strategy? The template grid starts with a Build your own card (Beta). Write the strategy in plain words, choose how often it checks in and which model decides, then continue to Fund and launch. It becomes a private template that only you see. See Build your own template.
Step 4 — Agent setup
Configure identity and execution prerequisites:
- Agent name and description
- Agent wallet — create or connect the wallet the runtime will use
- Delegation — chain, scopes, and expiry window for what the agent may sign
- Skills — template defaults, platform skills, or external imports (framework-dependent)
- MCP (Claude path) — optional marketplace connections where enabled
Delegation limits what the agent may attempt even if you edit strategy copy later.
Step 5 — Daily limit and launch
Before deploy:
- Daily limit — the most of your capital the agent can put to work in one UTC day. It is your control; every other risk rule is in the strategy. Read the strategy before you deploy.
- Review — confirm template, runtime, wallet, and delegation summary
Click Deploy (or Create then deploy) when preflight and billing checks pass.
See Schedules and risk.
After deploy
Your agent appears on the Agents list.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | What to check |
|---|---|
| Deploy blocked (billing) | Org plan deploy quota or subscription. See Pricing overview. |
| Delegation expired | Re-create or extend delegation in agent settings. |
| Preflight failed | Policy, funding, or venue readiness. Read the skip reason on the agent page. |
| Not enough credits | Open Credits: add credits or move to a bigger plan. Do not buy credits at thirdfy.com/credits. See Credits and agents and FAQ. |
| Template not in wizard | Template may be in preview or limited rollout. Choose another template or contact support. |
