Showing 20 of 26. Your agent can use every one of them; you don't pick them, you ask for the outcome.

How it works

Connected in a minute. In your control after that.

  1. Connect Anakin

    Open Connections, find Anakin and paste an API key from your Anakin account settings. Cicada checks it works before saving it.

  2. Choose what it may do

    Full, Ask first or Read-only, for the whole workspace. Share Anakin with the team, or keep it under each person's own login.

  3. Ask from anywhere

    Text your agent on iMessage or WhatsApp, message it in Slack or the app, or put a Anakin job on a schedule: every morning, every Friday.

Works with your other tools

Anakin, together with the rest of your stack.

Ask for an outcome that spans apps and your agent pulls from each one, cross-checks them and sends back one answer.

Questions

Anakin and Cicada, answered.

Does Cicada integrate with Anakin?

Yes. Anakin is one of the 888 apps with a page here, and it connects with an API key. Once it's connected, every agent in your workspace can use it from any channel you talk to them on.

How do I connect Anakin?

Open Connections, find Anakin and paste an API key from your Anakin account settings. Cicada checks it works before saving it.

What can Cicada do in Anakin?

26 actions: 15 that read from Anakin and 11 that change things in it, for example get crawl, search web, get monitor. It picks the right ones for what you ask and chains them with your other apps.

Can I stop Cicada changing things in Anakin?

Yes. In Connections, set Anakin to Read-only and no agent in your workspace can create, change or delete anything in it; it can still read. Ask first lets it act but makes it check with you before each change.

Can I ask about Anakin from my phone?

Yes. Text your agent on iMessage or WhatsApp, or message it in Slack or the app. It answers in the same thread, and it can run Anakin jobs on a schedule, like every morning at 8.

Is my Anakin data safe?

Your Anakin login or key is stored on the server and never appears in a conversation. Disconnecting removes it. Every action an agent takes is in your activity log, and your data isn't used to train models.

One teammate. The output of a team.
