Day 94 / 100 · Advanced · Prompting agents

From answers to actions.

Agents don't just reply. They browse, click, run code and use your tools over many steps. Prompting an agent is delegating.

Define done

A clear outcome and a clear finish line.

Set boundaries

What it may touch, and what it must never change.

Add checkpoints

When to stop and ask you before going further.

Review the trail

What it did along the way, not just the result.

Brief it like a contractor. Approve before it acts.
