Configuring an Assistant
At Lorong AI, I explained how identity and soul shape an agent's behavior, how skills give it task instructions, and how cron jobs and heartbeats support recurring work.
I paired those concepts with hosting and security choices, including local gateways, models, and skills. The configuration determines not only what an assistant can do, but where it runs and which tools it can reach.
