Anatomy
- Prompts
- System Prompt — Non‑negotiable instructions.
- Messages List (toggle) — Pass conversation history as input/output.
- User Prompt — Optional pre‑set prompt for fixed‑purpose Agents.
- Model configuration — Provider/model, temperature, top‑p, max tokens.
- Toolbox — The set of callable tools made available to the Agent.
Good patterns
- Keep System Prompts specific and outcome‑oriented.
- Start with few high‑leverage tools; expand gradually.
- Use Messages List when memory/context matters.
Observability
- Executions emit logs, traces, metrics for inspection.
- Use Payloads to reproduce and compare runs after prompt changes.
tip: Tool hygiene — Name tools by verb + object (fetch_user
,summarize_text
). Small, predictable tools make plans more reliable.
