I needed some data from a content API, had a few options:

1) Human agent, manual retrieval (included for completion

2) one-off script to get exactly the content I want

3) Traditional workflow, write & maintain

4) one off prompt to the agent to write the script in #1, sort and arrange content for grouping base on descriptions it receives (this is what I used, 3 hours later I had a years worth of journal abstracts of various subjects downloaded, sorted, indexed and summarized in a chromadb. I’d just asked for the content, but it’s python code it left for me included a parameterized CLI with assorted variables and some thoughtful presets for semantic search options.)

5) one off prompt to the agent to write the workflow in #3, run at-will or by agent

6) prompt an agent to write some prompts, one of which will be a prompt for this task, the others whatever they want: “write a series of prompts that will be given to agents for task X. Break task x down to these components…”
