⏱️ 5 minutes
⏰ Set a Timer
This module teaches you to have a short, focused setup conversation. Don't wander into project work yet. Modules 3-5 contain critical setup steps you need first.

When You Open Heyron

Depending on the currently installed interface, you'll see something like this:

🖥️ What You See

Important: Your agent doesn't know you yet. It won't ask questions automatically. You need to start the conversation.

Name Your Agent (If You Haven't)

If your agent doesn't have a name yet, this is the time. Names matter — they shape how you think about the relationship. Pick something you'll actually say.

You: "I want to call you Morgan. Do you like that name?"
Agent: "Morgan works well. Hello — I'm Morgan. What should I know about you?"

The Setup Conversation

This isn't ChatGPT. You're not "prompting" — you're introducing yourself to a new colleague. Cover these basics:

What Your Agent Needs to Know:

Example Conversations

Scenario A: The Side Hustle Founder

You:

"I'm Sarah. I run a small Etsy shop selling digital planners. I'm not technical — I can use Canva and Google Docs but I've never touched code. I bought this because I need help organizing my product launches and writing better descriptions. I want you to be direct and concise. Save everything important to files so I don't lose it."

Morgan:

"Got it, Sarah. Etsy shop, digital planners, non-technical, need organization + copy help. I'll be direct, save to files, and explain with examples not code. What would you like to tackle first?"

Scenario B: The Technical User

You:

"I'm David, web developer, comfortable with Python and APIs. I want an agent to help me research neighborhoods for a move, automate some data collection, and build small tools. I prefer technical accuracy over hand-holding. If I need something explained simply, I'll ask."

Agent:

"David — noted. Dev background, research + automation focus. Technical precision, minimal fluff. I'll assume you want the direct path and raw data unless you specify otherwise. What are we building?"

Scenario C: The Overwhelmed Professional

You:

"I'm overwhelmed and I don't know where to start. I have a job in marketing, two kids, and a side project I can't get off the ground. I bought this hoping it would help me organize my scattered thoughts. I need you to be patient and break things into tiny steps. I'm not stupid, I just have limited time and mental bandwidth."

Agent:

"Understood. Marketing pro, parent, limited bandwidth, need structure. I'll break everything down, move slowly, and focus on one small win at a time. No judgment, just help. What feels most urgent right now?"

What Happens Behind the Scenes

As you talk, your agent is creating and updating files:

📝 Files Created/Updated:

💡 Prompting is Just Focused Conversation

"Prompt engineering" sounds complicated. It isn't. It's just knowing what you want and saying it clearly.

❌ "Help me with my business" — Too vague
✅ "I sell digital planners on Etsy. Help me write better product descriptions that mention the problem they solve." — Clear context + specific task

The more context you give, the better the help. The agent can't read your mind, but it can remember everything you tell it.
⚠️ Don't Get Stuck Here

It's tempting to keep chatting once you start. Your agent feels helpful and you want to dive into real work.

Resist. You still need to:
• Connect GitHub (Module 03) — or your files don't persist
• Connect Discord (Module 04) — or you lose this conversation
Have your setup conversation. Then move on.
