# Create a new agent

> **API keys:** knowledge documents listed in `abilities` are attached only if the key has `knowledge.edit`. Custom functions are never attached by a key. Skipped items are reported in `warnings` (`knowledge_docs_skipped`, `function_assign_skipped`); the agent is still created.

**Required scope:** `agents.edit`
