# Respond

> Set the Live chat reply and Telegram auto-reply for the Run.

**Respond** sets the Live chat message and Telegram auto-reply for this Run.

An **Agent** already writes that reply without this node. Add Respond when there is no Agent, or when this text should replace the last Agent.

Respond is in **Add a node**, group with Condition. It is not a Tool on the Agent card.

Two Respond nodes on the same path fail the Run. Put a [Condition](/graph/condition) before a branch if only one should run.

<h2 id="text">
  Text
</h2>

Inspector **Settings**. **Insert value** adds [Previous nodes](/graph/previous-nodes).

Empty text is an error. The node does not fall back to the previous Result.

<h2 id="emits">
  Emits
</h2>

On the next node, **Previous nodes** lists **`Respond`: Result** (`{{Respond.text}}` while the name is unique). No extra named outputs.

| Output | Type | What the next node gets      |
| ------ | ---- | ---------------------------- |
| Result | Text | The interpolated reply text. |
