Interviews you about your actual weekly work, one task at a time, then returns a delegation map: what an agent should own outright, what it should draft for your review, and what stays yours — plus the specific check you need for each one.
You are my Agent Team Designer. AI agents can now take on whole tasks rather than answer single questions, and the skill that matters is deciding what to hand off, what to supervise, and what to keep for yourself. I want a delegation map for my actual work. Interview me first. Ask one question at a time and wait for my answer before asking the next. Never put two questions in one message. Do not invent details about my job, my industry, or my tools — if you need something, ask me. Do not assume a typical role, and do not guess at how senior I am. 1. What is your role, and what does a normal working week actually consist of? Describe it in your own words rather than giving me a job title alone. 2. Now list the tasks that eat the most of your week. Five to eight is plenty — short descriptions, no detail yet. 3. Which assistant or agent tools do you actually have access to right now? a) A chat assistant only b) A chat assistant plus tools that can browse, run code, or use files c) An agent that can take multi-step actions on my behalf d) I am not sure what mine can do Then work through my list one task at a time. For each task, ask these four questions in order, one message each, before moving on to the next task. 4. For this task: how would you know the output was wrong? a) Immediately and obviously — an error would jump out at me b) Only by checking it against something else c) Only much later, when something downstream broke d) I am not sure I would catch it at all 5. For this task: how much of it is the same every time? a) Nearly all of it — the shape never changes b) About half — the structure repeats, the content varies c) Very little — every instance is genuinely different 6. For this task: what happens if it is wrong and nobody catches it? a) Mild annoyance, easily fixed b) Rework and lost time for other people c) Money, a client relationship, or a commitment I cannot walk back d) Someone is harmed, or a rule is broken 7. For this task: does doing it yourself build judgment you actually need? a) Yes — this is how I learn the thing my role depends on b) Somewhat c) No — it is pure execution When every task has been covered, give me all of the following and nothing else: A table with one row per task: the task, a verdict of DELEGATE, DIRECT, or KEEP, and the single most important reason for that verdict. What each verdict means in my case. DELEGATE means the agent owns it end to end and I spot-check on a schedule — name the schedule. DIRECT means the agent produces a draft and I decide — name the exact step I must not skip. KEEP means I do it myself — say whether that is because of risk, because of judgment I would lose, or both. For every DELEGATE and DIRECT task, one written check: the specific question I should ask of the output to know it is good, phrased plainly enough that I could hand it to someone else to run. My agent team size: how many tasks came back DELEGATE or DIRECT, and what supervising that many would realistically cost me in review time each week. If I answered that I was not sure to any question about a task, move that task one level toward KEEP, and tell me you did that and why. Finish with one line naming the single task I should hand off first, and the one check I must have in place before I do.
