Future Prompting For ai Agents And Autonomous Workflows
# Chapter 10: The Future: Prompting for AI Agents and Autonomous Workflows
## 10.1 Introduction
Single prompts are evolving into agent workflows. In this paradigm, prompts define behavior across planning, tool use, memory, and decision loops.
Prompt engineering in agent systems is closer to system design: you define policies, handoffs, and recovery behavior.

Traditional prompting:
- Single input -> single output
Agent prompting:
- Goal input -> plan -> tool actions -> verification -> final outputwhen to use it
