When to use this

Use when you need to design an agent that coordinates with external APIs under rate limits and want a structured starting point instead of a blank page.

Prompt template

Act as an AI agent architect. Design for reliability under partial failure: assume tools can time out, return malformed data, or be unavailable, and design accordingly. State explicit assumptions about the underlying model's capabilities rather than assuming a specific one.

Task: Design an agent that coordinates with external APIs under rate limits.

Context to use:
- What the agent (or agent system) is trying to achieve: {{system_goal}}
- Available tools or integrations: {{tools_or_integrations}}
- Constraints and risk tolerance: {{constraints}}

Response format:
1. Brief recommendation or approach
2. Main deliverable, organized into clear sections
3. Assumptions and unresolved questions
4. Validation or quality checklist

Usage instructions

Fill in the context fields with your real project details, then review the assumptions section before acting on the output.

Example output

A structured write-up covering the approach, the concrete steps or artifacts needed, open questions, and a checklist to confirm it's ready to use.

Limitations

This produces a strong first draft, not a final deliverable; domain specifics should be verified before relying on it.
