Which AI model works best

Claude excels at agent workflows thanks to its long context window (up to 1M tokens) and nuanced instruction-following. ChatGPT has native Actions (tool-calling) built in. Gemini integrates best with Google Workspace data. For autonomous workflows, Claude Sonnet 4.6 is the current sweet-spot for quality and cost.

How to customize this prompt

Adjust the agent's role and constraints to your environment. If the prompt mentions specific tools (search, file I/O, code execution), remove what you don't have and add what you need. Add guardrails: "Always ask for confirmation before writing files." Define success criteria explicitly.

Common use cases

  • Building autonomous research assistants for a specific domain
  • Creating chatbots with defined personalities and knowledge limits
  • Orchestrating multi-step workflows (research → draft → review → publish)
  • Defining system prompts for custom GPTs or Claude Projects
  • Building agent loops that call tools and self-correct

Variations

Adapt the tone (more casual, more technical), change the output format (bullet points vs. paragraphs), or add constraints (word limits, target audience).
