# Conversation Node

> The most commonly used node type — have a conversation with the user without tool calling.

Conversation node is the most commonly used node type in conversation flow. It's used to have a conversation with the user without tool calling during the conversation.

<Note>
  If you want the agent to talk to the user and call tools during the same node, use a Subagent Node instead.
</Note>

The agent can have a multi-turn conversation inside a single node, so you don't necessarily need to create a new conversation node for every sentence the agent needs to say. It's recommended to split a node when there's a logic split, or the instruction gets too long.

## Write Instruction

Inside the node, pick how you want to write the instruction for the agent to follow:

* **Prompt**: Write a prompt for the agent to dynamically generate what to say
* **Static Sentence**: Agent will say a fixed sentence first, and if still inside this node afterward, it will generate content dynamically based on the static sentence set

## When Can Transition Happen

* When user is done speaking
* When **Skip Response** is enabled and agent finishes speaking

## Node Settings

| Setting              | Description                                                                                                                                                                           |
| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Skip Response        | When enabled, the transition will only have one edge. When the agent is done talking, it transitions via that specific edge. Useful for disclaimers where no user response is needed. |
| Knowledge Base       | Configure node-level knowledge bases to combine topic-specific knowledge with the agent-level knowledge base.                                                                         |
| Global Node          | See Global Node guide.                                                                                                                                                                |
| Block Interruptions  | When enabled, the agent will not be interrupted by the user when speaking.                                                                                                            |
| LLM                  | Choose a different model for this particular node — used for response generation.                                                                                                     |
| Fine-tuning Examples | Fine-tune conversation response and transition. See Finetune Examples guide.                                                                                                          |
