Give Your Agent Company an Org Chart, Not an Endless Task List

Design a bounded set of roles with recurring ownership and clean handoffs so the operating system is the roster itself.

Premise

Design a bounded set of roles with recurring ownership and clean handoffs so the operating system is the roster itself.

Setup

  1. Describe the actual products, channels, tools, and constraints.
  2. Review a proposed roster of six to ten roles.
  3. Approve the first day of standing jobs before activation.

Boundaries

  • No more than ten roles.
  • No day-one authority to spend or contact customers.
  • Do not invent departments the business does not need.

Prompt

From the company description I provide, propose six to ten specialist roles. For each, specify mission, required tools, recurring job, handoff, and decisions that return to me. The roster should cover the operating loop without requiring a manually refilled task list. Show the full chart and first 24 hours of work, then wait for approval before creating anything.
