    Compose Skills into a controlled workflow
    ~6 min
    Design a workflow with clear steps, inputs, outputs, accountability, and exception paths before combining reusable Skills.
  2. 2
    Define what moves between Skills

  3. 3
    Design exception paths before the workflow fails
    ~4 min
    Define what happens when information is missing, sources conflict, a case is high-risk, or a tool cannot complete its step.
  4. 4
    Measure the workflow, not just AI speed
    ~4 min
    Choose measures that show whether a workflow improves business outcomes after preparation, review, exceptions, and rework are included.
  5. 5
    Test a workflow end to end before sharing it
    ~5 min
    Use representative, incomplete, conflicting, and high-impact cases to verify the workflow's outputs, handoffs, and stop paths.
