Official siteAI agents and automation: make every step controllable
A useful agent connects repeatable steps without making the process opaque. Begin with a narrow workflow, known inputs, minimum permissions and approval before important actions.
When to explore this family
Sort requests and send uncertain cases to a person.
Extract information from a document before a business review.
Connect two applications with a readable execution history.
How to compare tools
Define triggers, expected outputs and stop conditions.
Test errors, duplicate actions and recovery after interruption.
Review permissions, logs and steps requiring human approval.
A repeatable trial
Starting situation. A workflow receives a request, classifies its topic and drafts a reply. The reply must never be sent without human approval.
Normal path
Try ten common requests with known expected outcomes and record every agent decision.
Difficult cases
Add an ambiguous request, duplicate, missing data and failure in a connected app. Check stopping and recovery.
Controls
Inspect permissions, logs and the exact point where a person approves the final action.
Evidence for a decision
- Output
- A process completing work, logging actions and handling retries.
- Checks
- Duplicates, permissions, incomplete inputs and write approval.
- Evidence
- Test events, logs, retries and undo procedure.
- Failure signal
- A workflow repeating an external action on every retry.

Questions before choosing
When does an agent add value over simple automation?
When several decisions or tools must be coordinated; a short fixed rule may be easier to control with a deterministic workflow.
Which cases should stop the process?
Define missing inputs, external errors, irreversible actions and uncertain outcomes before testing.
How should reliability be assessed?
Repeat the same set of cases, count errors and human recoveries, and inspect logs after each run.
