Hire an AI Employee

This sets up a new AI employee (a Dozal) by chatting with the Hiring Dozal, the platform's own setup assistant. It asks questions, looks things up (which apps are connected, which Slack channel you mean), shows a finished Dozal, and you hire it.

Prerequisite: load operate-ai-employees first. It installs the dozaldevs CLI and explains the key. The chat needs a key at Admin level or above; a lower key answers 403 FORBIDDEN.

Concepts and response shapes: ../operate-ai-employees/references/customer-api.md. For one command's arguments, run dozaldevs <command> --help. This skill keeps only how the chat behaves.

What a Dozal can do

Say what the job needs in your own words; the chat picks the matching abilities. Every ability the platform has, each with when a job needs it, is in references/abilities.md (generated from the platform's registry). An organization's own list, with only the apps it connected, is dozaldevs list-dozal-abilities.

How the chat works

The chat lives on the server. You open it once, then send one message at a time. Each send answers 202 straight away and the reply is written later (up to about a minute and a half when the first machine has to start). So every turn is: send, wait, read.

1. Open. Keep the chat id.
