  • Assistance are cloud-hosted GripTape agents.
  • They can be configured dynamically without coding.
  • Configured via the GripTape Cloud UI.
• Creating an Assistant
  • An assistant named “demo” is created with just a name and unique ID.
• Testing the Assistant
  • The test tab allows for submitting assistant runs with inputs.
  • Inputs can template arguments, demonstrated with a personalized greeting.
• Configuring the Assistant
  • Assistants can be assigned a knowledge base.
  • Example: The “2024 Ram 3500” knowledge base is used to answer questions from a manual.
  • The assistant correctly responds to a query about oil change frequency.
• Adding Rule Sets
  • Rule sets can personalize the assistant’s responses.
  • Example rules include using a knowledge base for specific topics, addressing the user as “truck driver,” and using emojis.
• Integrating Structures
  • Structures can be assigned to assistants as tools.
  • Example: A datetime structure is used to provide context on the current date and time.
• Using Conversation Memory
  • Threads can be created for assistant runs to maintain conversation history.
  • The assistant uses this memory to answer follow-up questions accurately.
• Checking for Overdue Tasks
  • The assistant can use the datetime tool to determine if a task is overdue.
  • It confirms the current date and indicates if an oil change is overdue.
• Reviewing Assistant Events
  • A script can be used to print out events for an assistant run.
  • Events confirm the assistant’s use of tools, such as the datetime structure.
