# Getting started

### Setup

Setup covers how RepX agent and its widget looks and behaves on your site - the first impression and the basic controls every RepX agent can be setup with.

#### Agent name

The agent name is what your RepX agent goes by in the chat. It gives the agent an identity your visitors recognize and can address directly - for example, "Lily."

#### Avatar

Choose the avatar that represents your agent, so RepX has a consistent face that matches your brand.

#### Launcher styles

RepX offers two launcher styles for how the widget appears on your page - a modern style and a more traditional one. Pick the one that fits your site's layout and how prominent you want RepX to be.

{% hint style="info" %} Keep the always-visible text box as your entry point. When it's on the page, a separate "Talk to \[agent]" button is unnecessary - and in many layouts the button overlaps and hides behind the box, which looks off. Rely on the text box the way Intercom and similar widgets do. If you'd rather keep the page clean until a visitor acts, use Hide widget on load. {% endhint %}

#### Position

Position controls where the widget sits on the page, so it lands in the spot that fits your layout and doesn't clash with other on-page elements.

#### Primary color

Your primary color is applied across the experience - CTA buttons, the chat background gradient, and other accents - so RepX feels native to your brand rather than bolted on.

#### Hide widget on load

Hide widget on load stops the widget from appearing automatically when the page loads.

The most common use case: you have a button on your page and want RepX to stay hidden until that button is clicked. To open the widget on click, you'll call a JavaScript function (window\.Repx.open).\

See [JavaScript functions](https://docs.storylane.io/repx/javascript-functions) for how to wire this up.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.storylane.io/repx/getting-started.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
