From chat to agent: the four steps

In chat, you guide everything, and when you close the window, the work stops. An agent reads your files, performs tasks, and keeps going while you do something else. The shift isn't about changing models: it's about changing where you work.

  1. 1Why chat has a ceiling
  2. 2The four steps and the order they follow
  3. 3Find your starting point
  4. 4Build your one-page diagnosis

Objective: say which step you're at today and what concrete step comes next.

01Overview

Each step builds on the one before it. If you skip the first, you’ll get stuck on the next three.

Scroll down: each step below lights up its part of the diagram.

  1. 1/5

    1 · Terminal

    The agent (Claude Code or Codex) works inside one of your folders, reads a rulebook (AGENTS.md), and lets you undo any mistake with Git. This is the foundation for everything that comes next.

  2. 2/5

    2 · Assistant

    With INTELECTO, you get your own Telegram assistant, with memory and a style you define, using a cloud or local model.

  3. 3/5

    3 · Queues

    inemaccbot saves each request as a task, resumes where it left off, and stops at a gate when it needs your approval.

  4. 4/5

    4 · Social media

    r7e, promoavatar, and the xviral tools (finviral, saudeviral, advviral) publishing regularly, with verified numbers and the source on screen.

  5. 5/5

    All four together

    Each step reuses the one before it: the terminal folder and rules, the .env with the keys, the queue that stores tasks, and the gate before anything important. That’s why the order is essential.

No magic: there’s no “render while you sleep” if the system doesn’t run correctly.

02Find your starting point

Click the situation that sounds most like you today.

1. I only use chat

Start with step 1. Do OSWork Quick, then the six exercises in sequence 1.

First-week goal: get to your folder using only the terminal and watch the agent create a file inside it.

First stepOpen the terminal and create the projetos/meu-primeiro-agente folder.

03Your one-page diagnosis

Copy it, fill it in, and save it in your project folder. It becomes your learning roadmap.
