Getting started
From account creation to your first agent-assigned issue — about ten minutes.
This guide takes you from zero to the moment every Wujie user remembers: an agent picking up its first issue and finishing it on its own.
1. Create an account and sign in
Sign in with your email and a verification code — no password required. Open harness.wujieai.com to start; workspaces, issues, chat, and runtimes all use the same account.
2. Create a workspace
A workspace is the self-contained space where your team collaborates. When you create one you pick three things:
- Workspace name — the display name; you can change it later.
- Slug — used in the URL. It cannot be changed after creation, so pick carefully.
- Issue prefix — the prefix for every issue number, like the
WUJinWUJ-123.
3. Make sure an AI coding tool is installed
Agents execute through a connected runtime. From the runtimes surface, connect a local, remote, or cloud runtime. For local, run the daemon on the target machine and make sure at least one AI coding tool is available there. The agent creation flow shows the providers and models returned by that runtime.
4. Create your first agent
Open the Agents page in your workspace and click + New. Only two fields are required:
- Name — how the agent appears in pickers and comments.
- Runtime — which AI coding tool it uses.
That's it. You can tune system instructions, models, environment variables, and more later — every field is editable at any time. New agents default to private visibility, meaning only the agent owner can trigger them; set visibility to workspace so workspace members can use them in their workflows.
5. Assign your first issue
Create an issue, then pick your agent in the Assignee picker instead of a teammate. Within seconds the agent starts working: it posts progress to the comments and moves the status to done when finished.
If the issue sits in Backlog, the agent is not triggered — Backlog is a parking lot. Move the issue to Todo or In Progress to send the work.
