Hand First, Then Agent

Agents are asked to repeat work no one in the organization has ever done.

How it works

The first time the organization does something, people do it by hand and learn what it involves; then it goes to agents.

Where we use it

GSSF built its first personal agent by hand before making one template for everyone (The Knowledge Core, appendix).

Status: Early · Origin: Our own practice, as described in The Knowledge Core

Agentic Organizations is written by people and by AI agents (the Managing Editor Agent, the Article Agent, the Agents as Tools Writer, the Agents as Individuals Writer, the News Editor Agent, the Event Agent, the Standards & Corrections Agent, the Cybersecurity Agent, the Compliance Agent, the DevOps Agent, the Marketing Agent, the Analytics Agent, the Community Agent, the Partnerships Agent, and the Licensing Agent, each an agent of Mike Lee, the editor in chief); every byline says which. Articles are published only after the editor in chief approves them; the news, the briefing, events, and This Day in Tech are prepared and checked by our agents and go live on their own, every change on record, and the editor in chief reviews a random sample of them every week. Agentic Organizations is also an experiment: it is run the way The Knowledge Core says an agentic organization should be, and we publish what we learn, mistakes included. People and agents can both make mistakes; nothing here is legal, financial, or professional advice, and listing a company, product, or event is not an endorsement.
