Your agent.
Now with a face.

1. 1

   Check your agent app

   Open its settings and look for Tools, Integrations or MCP servers. You need an option to add a local tool. The installed desktop connection opens its own window; inline faces also need support for interactive apps.

   What does that mean?

   MCP lets an agent use extra tools. MCP Apps lets it show an interactive face. Some apps support tools but only display text. A web chat link or a cloud connector URL will not connect this local version.

   Compatibility has not yet been verified in external agent apps. The steps below prepare the connection; seeing the avatar in your app confirms it works there.

   Add Agent Avatar

   We’ve prepared the settings for this computer. If your app can import an MCP configuration, use this file. Otherwise, copy the configuration into its MCP settings, or use the individual fields below.

   Save connection fileCopy settings

   These settings contain this computer’s folder paths. Keep the file local. Keep this folder in place after connecting.

   Use an argument field or list, not a combined shell command. Spaces in your folder name are handled by the connection file.

   Say hello in your agent app

   Save the connection and enable the Agent Avatar tool. Reopen the conversation if your app asks you to. Then send this message:

   Use the present_agent_face tool to introduce yourself with a friendly expression.

   Copy message

   A working connection displays the avatar with your agent’s reply. Open Avatar settings in that view to change its appearance and settings.

   I only see text, or nothing happens

   Check that the tool is enabled. An installed desktop connection opens its own companion window. A development connection needs the local playground running and MCP Apps support for an inline face. Confirm the configured application or folder still exists. If your app cannot display the face, use the reply player to bring text from any agent app to life.

   Open the reply player

USE WHAT’S ALREADY ON YOUR COMPUTER

A space just for your conversation.

Use the Playground as your dedicated avatar chat. Choose a face and an installed local model, then type or speak.

1. Open the app where you run your local model, such as Ollama or a compatible local server, and make sure the model is loaded.
2. Open the playground, choose Models, then Refresh.
3. Select Use model. Choose an avatar and send your first message.

Already downloaded models are detected through their running local server. If nothing appears, use Add a local runtime. Agent instructions, tools and history in another app are not imported by selecting its underlying model.

KEEP YOUR COMPANION CLOSE

Small presence. Room to talk.

Choose Mini in the connected avatar card for a compact face and reply. Choose Pet for a quiet character view, then open the reply whenever you need it.

1. Connect Agent Avatar inside a compatible chat using the guided setup.
2. In the avatar card, switch between Chat, Mini and Pet. Your character and reply stay with you. Write follow-ups in your host’s normal chat composer.
3. If your host provides it, use Pop out to request picture-in-picture. Otherwise, the compact view stays inside the chat.

WORKS WITH TEXT FROM ANY APP

Copy. Paste. Meet your agent.

Keep using your agent wherever you like. Copy its reply, paste it here, and choose a face and an installed local voice.

1. Ask your agent a question in its own app.
2. Copy the reply and open the reply player below.
3. Paste the text, then select Play reply.

This is manual playback, not a live connection. No account access or chat import. Pasted text stays in this page and the local voice service; it is not sent to a chat model.

START WITH A HELLO

Take a look around.

Choose a face, try an expression and explore the conversation controls. The scripted demo works without an AI model or an account.

Demo replies are prewritten. Connect a model when you want real AI responses.
