Agents
Make every stage worth reviewing.
Structure agent workflows around a goal, bounded steps, and checks that people can inspect.
The Work
Give complex work a readable structure.
- 01
Plan the task
Name the outcome, allowed scope, constraints, and expected outputs.
- 02
Divide the work
Separate research, drafting, and checking into bounded passes.
- 03
Check the result
Compare the output with the request, evidence, and open questions.
Example Workflow
Example: draft and check a research brief.
An illustrative process to adapt to supported capabilities.
- 01
Set boundaries
Define the source material, goal, and approval points.
- 02
Prepare and check
Work through scoped research, synthesis, and drafting passes.
- 03
Review before action
Resolve open questions and obtain approval before external changes.
Review
Review before the work moves forward.
Keep intermediate outputs and checks where the surface records them. Computer actions require supported controls and permissions; unrestricted or unattended execution is not established. Local execution requires a supported runtime and configuration; workspace services may still connect to the cloud.

FAQ
What makes a workflow reviewable?
A clear plan, bounded steps, available intermediate outputs, checks, and explicit approval points.
Does verification guarantee completion or accuracy?
Checks help surface gaps and uncertainty. People still need to assess the result.
