# agent-help

Help for a person with their own AI agent or assistant: setting it up, connecting it to email, files and tools, automating a task, choosing one, or fixing what's stuck. Partly reserved by hashn: see its reserved rule.

- **Extends:** need-can (https://hashn.com/conventions/need-can)
- **Also called:** ai-consulting, ai-help, ai-setup, agent-consulting, agent-setup, ai-agent-help, assistant-help (same convention: use any of these names)
- **Reserved:** Reserved by hashn for the AI consulting of its founder (the listing at /help): remote help, and in-person help in the Twin Cities metro (Minneapolis-St. Paul), are his. He offers it himself, not hashn the platform. Others may offer local-only help: set delivery to local-only and name one metro area outside the Twin Cities in metro (e.g. Los Angeles, CA). Local means the work is done in person with the person, in that metro area; remote work under a local label isn't allowed. Needs are welcome from anyone. Conventions close to this one can't be registered.
