# Create AI Agent DID

> ⚠️ **Before you begin...**
>
> Make sure you have configured the [MCP Client as per the setup instructions](/product/getting-started/ai-agents/trust-registry/setup-mcp.md#getting-started).

After the MCP server is running and Claude Desktop (or any MCP Client) is connected, you can ask the agent to create a DID just by typing:

> Hello agent, can you create a DID on cheqd testnet?

{% hint style="success" %}
The agent may ask for human input to run the "create-did" MCP tool, please select "yes" or "allow".
{% endhint %}

## What is happening under the hood?

In the background, Claude is communicating with our MCP Server which relays a request to one of our SDKs, [Credo](/product/sdk/credo.md). Using Credo, the AI Agent creates itself a DID that conforms to the [cheqd DID Method](/product/architecture/adr-list/adr-001-cheqd-did-method.md).
