Configuration

Agents are configured through the CLI and dashboard. Here's what each option means.

Creating an agent

Use maritime create to provision a new agent. You can pass options inline or follow the interactive prompts:

terminal

maritime create -n my-agent -t crewai --tier extended

Agent options

Option	Flag	Required	Description
name	-n, --name	Yes	Unique agent name
template	-t, --template	No	Template ID (interactive picker if omitted). See `maritime templates`
framework	--framework	No	Agent framework: `crewai`, `langgraph`, `openclaw`, `docker`, or `custom` (default: custom)
tier	--tier	No	Pricing tier: `smart` ($1/mo), `extended` ($5/mo), or `always_on` ($10/mo). Default: smart
env	-e, --env	No	Initial environment variables as KEY=value (repeatable)

Environment variables

Environment variables are managed through the CLI or the dashboard. Variables are marked as secret by default.

terminal

# Set a secret environment variable
maritime env set my-agent OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...

# Set a non-secret variable
maritime env set my-agent LOG_LEVEL=debug --no-secret

# List all variables
maritime env list my-agent

# Remove a variable
maritime env remove my-agent LOG_LEVEL

Triggers

Triggers (cron, webhook, Telegram, Discord, email) are configured through the dashboard. Triggers wake sleeping agents automatically when fired.

Resource limits

Resources (memory, CPU) are allocated automatically based on your tier:

Tier	Memory	CPU	Price
smart	512 MB	0.25 vCPU	$1/mo
extended	1 GB	0.5 vCPU	$5/mo
always_on	2 GB	1.0 vCPU	$10/mo
