# Agent workflow brief

Internal operating instructions, not an AI-search optimization file.
This document does not grant or enforce tool permissions.

## Goal and owner
- Task and acceptable result:
- Responsible owner and reviewer:
- Date / next review:

## Approved facts
- File or URL, version/date, responsible owner:
- Required currency, unit, country/language and conditions:
- Precedence when sources disagree:
- Missing facts to resolve with the owner:

## Boundaries
- Allowed: read the supplied materials and draft for review.
- Not allowed: send, publish, purchase, reserve stock, change records or access other data.
- Configure connected tools to enforce these limits. A prompt is not an access control.
- Budget / time limit / retry limit:

## Run
1. Extract relevant facts with exact file/section locations.
2. List conflicts and missing information. Do not infer absent facts.
3. Reviewer checks the table against original material.
4. Draft only from checked facts. Keep unresolved points explicit.
5. Reviewer checks every consequential claim before any external use.

## Acceptance checks — fill in before running
- Required facts and questions:
- Numbers, currencies, dates, locations and conditions:
- Unsupported promises that must not appear:
- Who resolves missing facts:

## Stop and escalate
- A central fact is missing, conflicting or outdated.
- An action exceeds the allowed scope or budget.
- A check fails; stop that action and return the issue to the owner.
- No external action without the separately authorized person and system controls.

## Record the outcome
- Actual tool/model label and date:
- Input versions and saved output:
- Errors, corrections, retries and unresolved facts:
- Acceptable draft / revise / stop, and reviewer:
- Measured completion time, review/rework time and cost, or unknown:
- Next decision and date:

Before claiming improvement, compare equivalent work with the current process.
A successful example is not permission to expand autonomy.
