🚀 Getting Started

Let’s configure Brody AI’s brain and run your first agent tasks.

🧠 Step 1: Set Up Your AI Brain

Brody AI supports a variety of local and cloud engines. To set your primary provider:

1. Open the settings panel via Tools > Brody AI > Tool Settings.
2. In the General tab under the Global Core Settings, select your preferred default provider.
3. Choose your setup style:
   • Commercial APIs: Enter your OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, or DeepSeek API key in the Global Credential Vault.
   • Aggregators (Recommended for low cost): Get an API key from OpenRouter.ai. You can access top-tier models and multiple completely free models (like nvidia/nemotron or tencent/hy3) with a single key.
   • Local & Private: Choose Ollama. Start the Ollama server on your machine, and download your chosen model (e.g. ollama run llama3).

🔌 Step 2: Connection Test

Before talking to Brody, make sure the connection is fully synced:

1. In the General tab of the settings, scroll down and click Test Global Connection.
2. A popup dialog will verify if the agent successfully established contact.
3. If the test fails, verify your API keys or check your local Ollama address (http://localhost:11434).

💬 Step 3: Your First Prompt

Open the chat window at Tools > Brody AI. Let’s ask Brody to create a simple gameplay script:

1. Set the mode dropdown (at the bottom left) to Execute.
2. In the text area, type:

   “Create a new script named PlayerMovement.cs that handles basic keyboard movement and jumping for a Rigidbody.”

3. Click SEND or hit Enter.
4. Brody will stream the reasoning and write the script. Once done, a Proposal Card will appear showing PlayerMovement.cs with an Apply button. Click Apply to write the file directly into your Unity Assets folder!
