# How to Use an Agent

**Step 1: Engage with a Standalone Agent**

* Choose one of the platform’s four functional agents:
  * **Chat Agent**
  * **Information Agent**
  * **Art Agent**
  * **Trader Agent** *(Currently in optimization and training phase)*
* Input relevant data to receive a tailored response.
* Each agent uses a distinct emotional and interaction model for personalized engagement.

**Step 2: Utilize an Agent Cluster**

* Select an **agent cluster** to combine the intelligence of multiple agents for a comprehensive solution.
* The platform invokes agents in a structured sequence:
  * **Initial understanding** → **In-depth analysis** → **Final feedback**
* Each agent leverages its specialized expertise, ensuring an efficient and accurate outcome.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.baifund.io/faqs/how-to-use-an-agent.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
