Advanced Examples

This section contains advanced configuration examples and guides for extending and customizing your Digital Employees.

Overview

After completing the Getting Started examples, explore these advanced topics to build more sophisticated digital employees:

Memory & Context

• Memory Configuration — Configure persistent memory for context retention across sessions

Integrations

• MCP Allowed Tools Configuration — Configure which tools are allowed for MCP integrations

Agent Configuration

• Digital Employee Supervisor — Configure a human point-of-contact for escalation decisions

• Sub Agents Configuration — Set up coordinator agents with one or more sub-agents, including configuration propagation

Workflow Configuration

• Escalation Configuration — Set up escalation rules for handling blockers and critical issues

• Multi-Step Pipelines — Configure multi-step pipelines for complex workflows

Extension & Customization

• Extend — Learn how to extend digital employee core components, including identity, connectors (tools & MCPs), and the digital employee agent itself

Key Concepts

Memory Management

Configure persistent memory to enable context retention across sessions:

• Session Memory — Maintain conversation history

• Long-term Memory — Store important information across sessions

• Memory Types — Choose appropriate storage mechanisms

Integration Control

Fine-grained control over MCP integrations:

• Tool Allowlisting — Specify which tools are accessible

• Security — Control external system access

• Flexibility — Customize per-integration rules

Agent Architecture

Build sophisticated multi-agent systems:

• Supervision — Human-in-the-loop escalation

• Coordination — Sub-agent orchestration

• Configuration Propagation — Share settings across agents

Workflow Design

Create complex workflows with multiple steps:

• Multi-Step Pipelines — Sequence operations

• Escalation Rules — Define when and how to escalate

• Error Handling — Manage failures gracefully

Extension Points

The Digital Employee Pipeline is designed to be extensible:

• Identity — Add custom attributes to the digital employee identity

• Tools — Create custom tools for specific use cases

• MCPs — Define custom Model Context Protocol integrations

• Agents — Extend the DigitalEmployeeAgent class for specialized behavior

Best Practices

• Use the builder pattern for consistent configuration

• Leverage configuration propagation for shared settings

• Implement proper error handling and escalation

• Use memory strategically for context persistence

• Design workflows with clear escalation paths
