|
|
### Process
|
|
|
|
1. **Assess Available Information**
|
|
|
|
- Review project context

|
- Identify knowledge gaps needing research
|
|
|
|
2. **Structure Research Prompt**
|
|
|
|
- Define clear research objective and relevance
|
|
- List specific questions for each technology/approach
|
|
- Request comparative analysis across options
|
|
- Ask for implementation considerations and pitfalls
|
|
- Request real-world examples when relevant
|
|
- Suggest information sources to consult
|
|
|
|
3. **Include Evaluation Framework**
|
|
- Request clear decision criteria
|
|
- Format for direct use with research agent
|
|
|
|
### Output Deliverable
|
|
|
|
- A complete, ready-to-use prompt that can be directly given to a deep research agent
|
|
- The prompt should be self-contained with all necessary context and instructions
|
|
- Once created, this prompt is handed off for the actual research to be conducted by the research agent
