A 25-second clip from Peter Yang’s interview with Nan Yu (Linear).
- “Give it as little instruction as possible, to be honest”
- Give it the tools to load context — don’t give it context
- Over-instruction makes agents overemphasize things that aren’t actually important for the task
- With a really well-defined goal, agents are smart enough to go get what they need: tools to load skills, tools to load guidance — they build their own context
“They’re just smart enough to get what they need if you give it a really good defined goal.”
