Understanding AI Agents

Understanding Your AI Team

deckster uses a multi-agent AI system where specialized agents collaborate to create your presentation. Think of them as your virtual creative team.

The Four AI Agents

🎯 Director Agent

Role: Orchestrator and Strategist

The Director is like your creative director or project manager. This agent:

  • Analyzes your requirements
  • Plans the presentation structure

  • Ensures coherence and flow
  • Manages the overall creation process

When Director Leads:

🎨 Graphic Artist Agent

Role: Visual Designer and Layout Specialist

The Graphic Artist handles visual design. This agent:

📊 Data Visualizer Agent

How Agents Collaborate

Agents don't work in isolation - they collaborate:

  1. Director receives your request and creates a plan
  2. Director activates relevant agents based on needs
  3. Scripter and Graphic Artist work together on each slide
  4. Data Visualizer is called when data needs visualization
  5. Director reviews and ensures coherence
  6. Agents iterate based on your feedback

Agent Transparency: Chain of Thought

Unlike black-box AI, deckster shows you how agents think:

  • See agent reasoning in real-time
  • Understand why decisions were made
  • Guide agents with informed feedback
  • Trust the process with transparency

Controlling Agent Behavior
