Your Mission

Can you build and publish an agent from scratch?

Steps

  1. Create a new workflow in the editor
  2. Add at least 2-3 nodes
  3. Test it locally to make sure it works
  4. Set your pricing (sale price + per-execution cost)
  5. Publish it to the marketplace

Tip: If you don't have a Listing Pass yet, the publish flow shows a single "Buy Pass & List ($2.99)" button — no separate pass purchase needed.

Tips

  • Start simple — a webhook trigger + HTTP request + respond node is a great first agent
  • Check node support — see "What nodes are supported?" for the current list
  • Test before publishing — run your workflow at least once to verify it works
  • Write a good description — Producers choose agents based on what they do and how they are described

Success Criteria

Your agent appears in the marketplace and another user can deploy it. Share your result in the Agent Showcase board!
