Write clearer instructions so your Agents and Workflows produce useful, consistent results.

What you’ll learn

  • Why specific instructions produce more reliable responses
  • Where prompts live in Agent instructions, chat messages, and Workflow Actions
  • How role, process, output format, constraints, and examples clarify the result
  • How to tell Cassidy what to do when important information is missing

Put it into practice

1

Choose where the prompt belongs

Put consistent behavior, such as role, process, tone, and rules, in Agent instructions. Put task-specific requests and context in chat messages or Workflow inputs.
2

Describe a good result

Define the role, process, output format, and constraints. Add one strong example when it explains your expectations more clearly.
3

Test and refine

Tell Cassidy to ask a question or flag a gap instead of guessing. Test several realistic requests, then make examples or boundaries more specific when results vary.
