# Start from a template

Templates are finished characters made by Vivix. Pick one and you have a working character in seconds, ready to try out or reshape into your own. It's the quickest way to see what Agent can do.

## Built-in templates

| Template | What it does |
| - | - |
| Toffee | A golden British Shorthair who chats with you and moves like a real cat. |
| Rosie | Sings and dances, changes outfits, and chats with the audience. |
| AlleBrean | Hosts a live shopping show: presents products one by one, changes scenes, and shows try-ons. |
| Charlie | A fitness coach who guides you through workouts and demonstrates each move in the gym. |
| Vespera | A blackjack dealer who chats with players while running the game at the table. |

We add new templates from time to time, so you may see more than the ones listed here.

## Create a character from a template

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Agent">
    Sign in to [platform.vivix.ai](https://platform.vivix.ai) and click **Agents** in the left navigation. The template cards are below the message box. Scroll the row sideways to see all of them.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick a template">
    Click a template card. Agent creates a new project with your own copy of that character and opens it.

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Read the welcome message">
    The agent starts by explaining what the template can do, and most templates suggest a few next steps. Click a suggestion to put it in the message box, fill in the parts in brackets, such as `[identity or occupation]`, and send it. Nothing is sent until you click send.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Try the character">
    Open the **Live preview** panel and click **Talk to character**. The conversation only starts when you click it.

  </Step>
</Steps>

## Make the template your own

Keep chatting to change anything about the character. Here are some ideas for each template:

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Toffee: turn it into your own pet">
    Attach a photo of your pet, then send:

    ```text wrap theme={null}
    My pet's name is [pet name]. Use the pet photo attached to this message to update Toffee's appearance, preserving [most distinctive features]. Update the character's name, overall appearance, four-legged movement, and expressions so the digital pet looks and behaves like my pet.
    ```

    Toffee also suggests a mini game you can build to play with your pet. See the example in [Build an app the character can use](/agent/capabilities/app#example-a-mini-game-with-a-pet).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Rosie: plan a new performance">
    ```text wrap theme={null}
    Plan a performance for Rosie around [song or theme] for [target audience]. Update the opening, performance order, choreography, audience interactions, and on-screen menu while keeping her appearance and voice consistent.
    ```
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="AlleBrean: add your products">
    Click **Upload product media** in the welcome message to open the product form. You can add up to 12 products. Only the name is required, and you can also add a price, a link, a description, and up to 8 images or MP4 videos for each product. The products AlleBrean already presents are filled in for you. The **Model image** field holds the host's photo; it starts with AlleBrean's current look, and you can replace it.

    Click **Submit to agent** when you're done, and the agent updates the show with your products.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Charlie: build a workout">
    ```text wrap theme={null}
    Adapt Charlie's workout for my goal of [training goal] and my current fitness level of [fitness level]. Keep the exercises practical and ask about any limitations before increasing intensity.
    ```

    ```text wrap theme={null}
    Have Charlie demonstrate [exercise] with [available equipment]. Include a short warm-up, clear movement cues, and a safe way to adjust the difficulty.
    ```
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Vespera: change the table">
    ```text wrap theme={null}
    Move the table to [scene description]. Update the visual direction, lighting, and dealer outfit while preserving the natural feel of the 9:16 experience and dealing motions.
    ```
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

<Tip>
  Templates are also good examples to learn from. Vespera shows a character using a game next to her; see [Build an app the character can use](/agent/capabilities/app). Rosie and AlleBrean show planned shows with songs or products in a set order; see [Perform specific content](/agent/capabilities/performance).
</Tip>

When you're happy with the character, click **Share** in the preview panel. Choose **Copy link** to get a link to its page, or **Share to community** to list it publicly.
