  ## Discover and Create Agents

  This section guides you through finding existing agents and creating new ones within Airia's end-user experience.

  ### Explore Existing Agents

  Once agents are made available, you can easily find them by searching and applying various filters.

  #### Search for Agents

  You can search for agents by entering a full or partial match of their **name** or **description** in the search bar.

  #### Filter Agents

  Use the available tabs and options to narrow down your agent view:

  - **Recommended**: Displays agents designated as "Recommended" by your Platform Administrator during their deployment configuration.
  - **Recent**: Shows agents you have recently accessed or interacted with.
  - **More (Tags)**: Click **More** to view a list of all tags associated with agents. You can select one or more tags from this list to filter the displayed agents.

  ### Create Your Own Agent

  You can launch a simple agent directly from the end-user interface.

  - **End Users**: For users with the `End User` role, this is the only method to build and launch a custom agent.
  - **Platform Administrators**: Users with the `Platform Administrator` role can launch an agent either from the **Agent builder** or by using the **Create your own agent** experience.

  <info>
    Access to the **Create your own Agent** feature is controlled by a tenant setting and must be approved and enabled by a Platform Administrator.
