|
|
- **Comprehensive analysis** reserved for complex scenarios requiring deep investigation
|
|
- **Session-based caching** eliminates repeated detection overhead (50 tokens vs 2,000+ per task)
|
|
|
|
### 🎯 Enhanced AI Agent Focus
|
|
The structured framework **keeps AI agents more focused and productive** than ad-hoc approaches:
|
|
- **Systematic workflows** prevent "wandering" and off-topic exploration
|
|
- **Defined quality gates** ensure consistent, measurable outcomes
|
|
- **Automatic escalation** handles complexity without getting stuck
|

|
|
- **Context-aware execution** matches task complexity to solution depth
|
|
|
|
**Result**: Agents deliver **higher quality results** with **significantly fewer tokens** through systematic, focused execution.
