Agent Briefs

Agent briefs are the most actionable output from Process Mapper. They translate opportunity analysis into structured specifications that AI agent builders can implement directly.

What Is an Agent Brief?

An agent brief is a detailed problem statement for a specific automation opportunity. It provides everything a developer or AI agent platform needs to build a solution.

Brief Structure

Each agent brief includes:

Problem Statement

A clear description of the current process, its pain points, and why automation is warranted. Written from the perspective of the business need, not the technical solution.

Scope Definition

• What the agent should handle (in-scope)
• What it should NOT handle (out-of-scope)
• Edge cases and exceptions to consider

Data Flows

• Input sources (systems, databases, documents)
• Expected transformations
• Output destinations
• Data format and quality requirements

Constraints

• Compliance and regulatory requirements
• Performance expectations (latency, throughput)
• Integration requirements with existing systems
• Security and access control needs

Success Criteria

Measurable outcomes that define when the automation is working correctly:

• Accuracy thresholds
• Processing time targets
• Error rate limits
• User satisfaction benchmarks

Agent-Planner.com Compatibility

Each agent brief includes a ready-to-use prompt formatted for Agent-Planner.com — a research-backed tool that recommends optimal agent architectures (single-agent vs. multi-agent) based on your specific problem.

Click "Copy for Agent Planner" on any brief to get a natural-language description you can paste directly into Agent-Planner.com. The generated prompt includes the problem statement, required tools and APIs, performance requirements, and key constraints — everything Agent Planner needs to recommend the right architecture.

Export Formats

Each brief can be exported in three ways:

• Copy for Agent Planner — One-click copy of a natural-language prompt for Agent-Planner.com architecture recommendations
• JSON — Structured data for programmatic use or import into other tools
• Markdown — Human-readable document for sharing with teams, vendors, or stakeholders

Using Agent Briefs

Agent briefs are designed to be handed off to:

• Agent-Planner.com for architecture recommendations and starter code
• Internal engineering teams building custom AI agents
• AI agent platforms that accept structured specifications
• Consultants or vendors implementing automation solutions
• RFP processes where detailed requirements are needed

The structured format ensures nothing gets lost in translation between the people who understand the process and the people who will build the solution.
