What to include in a business brief
- Your business and the people who will use the agent.
- The result those people need, such as a plan, estimate, analysis, or completed request.
- The important inputs and rules, if you already know them.
- What should happen after the result, such as payment, a call, or a team handoff.
- The tools or materials you want it to use, without sharing credentials in the brief.
A concrete brief gives the Builder room to help
This describes the business task without prescribing the code, interface components, database, or internal model instructions. The Builder can ask for missing details and propose an appropriate experience.
Example for an SEO consultant
I want to offer clients an agent that helps investigate falling organic traffic. It should use analytics data they are authorized to share, identify pages worth investigating, and help prioritize improvements. Help me decide which data connections and reports are needed before building.
When you do not know the requirements yet
Say that you want to explore the idea first. Ask the Builder to compare possible flows, identify the information needed, or show what the customer would receive.
Do not invent prices, policies, personal details, or account access to make the brief look complete. A small honest brief is more useful than a detailed specification based on assumptions. Supply private materials through workspace upload and connection flows.
