# Set up a CompanyOS Product and its Routines by asking OS Manager

> Agno CompanyTools gains `create_company_product` and `create_company_routine`, so a person chatting with OS Manager or Product Manager can create a Product with website Sources and Routines under their own permissions.

Agno's `CompanyTools` now carries `create_company_product` and `create_company_routine`, so a founder can type "set up a Product for our docs site with an intake Routine" to OS Manager and find the Product, its website Source and its Routine in the [CompanyOS](https://www.agno.com/blog/introducing-companyos) lists afterwards. Product Manager, an OS Manager member once `AgentOS(manager=OSManager())` is set, offers this step whenever a person starts a chat with no Product yet.

The tools take the same `Source` and `Routine` declarations as code and YAML. Every record belongs to the person in the chat, and website Sources keep the agent and run that added them. Leave out `cron_expr` and the Routine runs on demand. If a Source or Routine fails partway, the tool discards the half-built Product.

Product Manager needs a model, and no key was available, so this script called the tools directly with a run context for a person named Ana, as the release's `05_product_manager.py` cookbook does. The `from a Routine run` line is a call made under a Routine's authority. Real output:

```text

```

The tool's own reply leaves `schedule_type` empty, and `GET /company/routines` fills it in. No HTTP route or database schema changed.
