# Quickstart templates

> Create your first agent or pool from a pre-filled template.

The **Quickstart templates** screen is the fastest way to get something running: pick a template, and Orca opens the create dialog **pre-filled** so you only have to review and confirm. For the full walkthrough, see the [Quickstart guide](/quickstart).

The screen has two tabs.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Single agent">
    Templates that create one agent. Cards are grouped into **blank**, **solo**, and **real-world** categories, each tagged with **feature chips** showing what the template uses. Clicking a card opens the **New-agent** dialog, pre-filled from the template.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Pool">
    Templates that create a multi-agent pool. Cards are grouped into **pool** and **orchestrate** categories. Clicking a card opens the **New-pool** dialog, pre-filled.

    Each pool card **lists the agents it requires**, and lets you **create any missing agents inline** as part of setup.
  </Tab>
</Tabs>
