# Create an agent squad

> Create a squad that routes inbound conversations across 2–6 member agents. A classifier agent maps each message to one member's intent labels, with an optional fallback agent for unmatched intents. Supply `name`, `classifier_agent_id`, and the `members` array; the classifier must not also be a member.
