I’ve been building a lot of agent workflows at my day job. Something that I’ve found a lot of success with when deciding on an orchestration strategy is to ask the agent what they recommend as part of the planning for phase. This technique of using the agent to help you improve its performance has been a game changer for me in leveraging this tech effectively. YMMV of course. I mostly use Claude code so who knows with the others.

Can you expand on this at all? What are you asking the agent for help with?

Not who you asked but I have made similar experiences with Claude Code. For example I might have asked it to “commit the changes” and be surprised that it did not use the skill `committing-changes`.

Now if I ask “why did you not use the skill”, the answer typically starts with an apology, the insight which skill it should have used, and it will proceed using the skill.

In contrast, asking “what can we change in the skill description so you use it next time I ask you to commit”, it will typically explain how it selects skills and how to modify the skill in question’s description so it would pick it on its own.
