Build Your
Agentic Workflow.
Most people use AI like a search engine — one prompt, one answer, inconsistent results. We’re going to flip that. You’ll leave with a reusable workflow that turns AI into a team.
Would you use one tool
for everything?
One tool to build a house.
One tool to cook.
One tool to fix a car.
Different jobs need different tools, different methods, and different kinds of thinking.
a house
So why are you doing that with AI?
Two words
that change everything.
Before we fix how you use AI, let’s name what you’re building. The rest of the workshop is just filling these in.
What makes you different from AI?
Nothing — unless you structure how you think.
Be honest:
That’s why it feels
hit or miss.
Most people using AI right now
are just faster at being average.
Why?
AI isn’t confused.
Your instructions are.
AI works best as a team.
Stop treating it like one magical brain that should somehow know what you meant.
Planner
Figures out the approach before action.
Builder
Creates the first working version.
Critic
Finds flaws, holes, and weak reasoning.
Improver
Makes the final version sharper.
The loop:
Plan → Build → Critique → Improve
This is the part people remember because it explains why better output is not magic.
This loop is intelligence.
Why this works:
gives an answer.
4 passes
build a result.
A company wouldn’t hire
one person to do everything.
Even if they could...
they wouldn’t.
Because:
Raw capability
Can do a lot. Knows a lot. Still unstable if you force everything into one pass.
Structured capability
Same intelligence. Better role separation. Better outcomes. Less randomness.
Capability without structure =
inconsistent results
You don’t need smarter AI.
You need a better system.
Bad usage
Prompt: “Explain photosynthesis”
Input
Too broad. No audience. No format. No objective.
Result
Usually correct. Usually generic. Usually forgettable.
Structured system
You are a structured AI system. When I give you a task: 1. Plan it 2. Build it 3. Critique it 4. Improve it Give only the final improved result. Task: Create a 1-page study guide on photosynthesis.
Same AI.
Different structure.
Mini swarm
A coordinated process.
Try this now
Give AI a task
Make it real. Something you actually need help with.
Use the structure
Plan it. Build it. Critique it. Improve it.
Compare the result
See what changes when the process changes.
Keep iterating
Do not stop at the first decent answer.
Copy this.
Use it everywhere.
Paste this at the top of any conversation. Replace the task. The roles stay. The structure stays. Watch what changes.
The agentic workflow template
You are my agentic workflow. For every task I give you: 1. Plan — outline the approach. 2. Build — create the first version. 3. Critique — find flaws, gaps, weak reasoning. 4. Improve — produce the final, sharper version. Show only the final improved result. Task: [your task here]
