Template-Based Agent Creation Endpoint

Initiative: Chipp Agent Template API

Description:
Add a simple API endpoint that allows external systems to create a new agent from an existing agent template. Templates are created and configured inside the Chipp UI and contain all required data sources, actions, and channel setup so the API consumer does not need to configure anything.

Requirements:

  • Ability inside the UI to mark an agent as a “template”

  • API endpoint: POST /templates/{template_id}/instantiate

  • New agent inherits everything from the template:

    • instructions

    • actions/tools

    • integrations

    • data sources

    • channels

  • API returns:

    • new agent_id

    • communication entry points (Slack install URL, agent URL, etc.)

Outcome:
External tools, agencies, and SaaS products can instantly spin up ready-to-use agents without touching the Chipp UI.

    I’d LOVE to be able to automatically spin up agents! This is step 1 of 3 I listed that I think would enable that. Also just really would love any version of this.

    I know y’all have a lot to do, so maybe this is too much.
