What are AI teammate templates?

AI teammate templates let you capture a complete AI teammate configuration — instructions, capabilities, branding, and tool connections — as a portable .boostgpt file. Share it with others, reuse it across projects, or keep it as a backup.

Export

Save your AI teammate’s full config as a .boostgpt file

Import

Create a new AI teammate or update an existing one from a template file

​
What’s Included in a Template

A .boostgpt file is plain JSON. When you export an AI teammate, the template captures:
API keys, OAuth tokens, and other credentials are never included in exported templates. After importing, reconnect each tool manually in the Tools tab.

​
Exporting a Template

  1. Open your AI teammate in the dashboard
  2. Go to Settings → AI teammate template
  3. Click Export template
  4. A .boostgpt file downloads to your computer
You can optionally add a description before exporting — it appears when the file is imported.

​
Importing a Template

​
New AI teammate

  1. Go to New AI teammate
  2. Click Import from template
  3. Select your .boostgpt file
  4. Review your AI teammate name and settings, then create

​
Existing AI teammate

Apply a template to update an existing AI teammate’s configuration:
  1. Open your AI teammate → Settings → AI teammate template
  2. Click Import template
  3. Select your .boostgpt file
Importing to an existing AI teammate overwrites their configuration fields but does not rename your AI teammate or delete existing tools that aren’t in the template.

​
Tools and Connectors

When a template includes predefined connectors (e.g. HubSpot, Slack, Twitter), BoostGPT automatically provisions the MCP server infrastructure during import — the tool appears in your Tools tab with its full function list ready to use. You still need to connect your credentials:
  1. Go to the Tools tab after importing
  2. Click the tool that needs credentials
  3. Enter your API key or complete the OAuth flow

​
File Format

.boostgpt files are JSON with a fixed header:
The file extension is .boostgpt but the content is standard JSON — you can open and edit it in any text editor.

​
Use Cases

  • Share AI teammate setups with your team or the community
  • Reuse a proven configuration across multiple projects
  • Version-control your AI teammate — commit the .boostgpt file to git alongside your code
  • Migrate between accounts — export from one workspace, import to another
