01
Find the repeat
Output: Repeated task + clear boundary
Start with work that keeps stealing time, attention, or the same decision over and over.
Agent Workflows
FROM REPEATED WORK TO REUSABLE FLOW.
A useful workflow is more than a long prompt. It needs clear handoffs, the right tools, human review, and proof that the loop works.
02
Map the handoffs
Output: Inputs + agent actions + outputs
Lay out what comes in, what the agent handles, where tools connect, and what must stay human.
03
Build the useful loop
Output: Working agent workflow
Make the smallest real workflow run end to end before adding polish or more agents.
04
Add the guardrails
Output: Safe review points + proof
Add approval points, tests, security checks, and clear failure paths so speed does not become a mess.
05
Package what works
Output: Open-source release
Turn the proven setup into a tool, crew pack, or reusable workflow that another person can run.
