Agent Optimization Prompt: Design Systems for Agent Ergonomics
doodlestein · x · 2026-08-31
Shares a prompt engineering tip to optimize systems for agentic workflows, focusing on "agent-intuitiveness" and "agent-ergonomics".
Key concepts:
- Perspective Shift: Asks the agent to imagine itself as the driver of the system, determining what is needed for accurate understanding and optimal control.
- Systemic Cohesion: Encourages viewing the project as a unified, synthetic system rather than a loose assembly of parts.
- Legible Abstractions: Aims to build a tower of linked abstractions that are maximally legible to the agent executing the tasks.
