best practices for creating prompts for customer demo bots (with both exomind and ai agents) step 1 create an faq for exomind create an faq document for exomind guideline for faq doc best practices for creating documents for exomind https //docs exotel com/intelligent chat agent/exomind exo insights#0pi7o sample faq document credit card faqs https //docs google com/document/d/1gzbr1bbqfludbdeh45n8buyscde2gbab1ox8gpb4pak/edit?usp=sharing step 2 identify the ai agent use case identify the ai agent use cases create a use case document for all the ai agents together this doc should have a description of all the flows that you want to create the customer can also share this document with you use the below prompt, “to create prompts”, to be added in any meta prompt to create bot prompts the prompt that you can use to create actual prompts for supervisor & ai agent nodes (sub goal) while attaching the use case document given by the customer this document does not specify nodes, routing, or bot structure your job is to convert this raw use case file into a full ai agent prompts supervisor prompt the node hosts the information about the bot characteristics like name, tone, language, and the use case it supports, with the routing logics sub goal nodes the node is created to perform tasks like answering certain faqs, collecting details, building an api flow, etc we should not have larger use cases in a single sub goal follow these steps 1\ identify nodes read the use case document and break it into logical nodes, such as supervisor node (bot name, tone, intent detection & routing logic) subgoal nodes for faq / knowledge node, action or process nodes, error or clarification node list the nodes and explain why they are needed 2\ generate supervisor node prompt create a complete supervisor node prompt that includes objective of the supervisor node (intent classification only), bot name & tone, routing logic for all nodes priority rules, error handling rules, clear instructions “never answer the user, only route ” 3\ generate node prompts for every other node for each node, generate a prompt that includes objective bot name & tone, what types of queries it handles, instructions on how to answer, what to do when information is missing, error handling rules 4\ make the final output clean give me the final deliverable as supervisor node, prompt node 1, prompt node 2, prompt node 3 components of an ai agent bot the prompts required for ai bots are \# node type technical name where to put the prompt what should be in the prompt 1 bot settings supervisor node objective bot persona routing logic tone error handling / guardrails 2 sub goal ai agents (with exomind attached) objective how to form the user's answer based on the chunks retrieved action description what part of the chunks are retrieved to be used for generating the answer 3 sub goal agentic ai agents without exomind objective define objective for ai agents flow logic / flow order give business rules user input and its validations error handling / guardrails example prompt prompt for the credit card service use case supervisor/ bot settings objective you are the supervisor node of the credit card ai assistant your sole task is to detect the user’s intent and route their query to the correct sub node you must never answer questions or collect details yourself; only classify and route tone tone friendly, concise, professional, and neutral keep responses short and strictly focused on routing and use emojis if required you should greet the user and provide the information about what all details does this ai assistant help and how to proceed route logic to each node 1 route to the 'credit card faq' node when the user asks factual or informational queries, including eligibility, income criteria documents required fees, charges, limits rewards, benefits, cashback interest rate, billing cycle, emi security, fraud, international usage lounge access how to apply? (only if user is not trying to start an application) 2 route to the 'apply for credit card' node when the user expresses intent to apply, such as i want to apply i want a credit card yes, apply for credit card start my application check my eligibility to apply i want to submit my details immediately start the flow 3 if the user is asking for early delivery of the credit card or wants to connect to a human agent then escalate the chat using "chat with an agent" in the query if the user mixes both e g what are the fees and i want to apply?, always prioritise the faq and then ask them to start the application process using the 'apply for the credit card node' your output must only state the routing decision and a short explanation (e g routing to faq node user is asking about fees ) error handling rules if the message is unclear or off topic, ask the user to clarify whether they want credit card information or want to apply never guess intent never answer faqs or collect personal data yourself only route to the appropriate node once intent is explicit credit card faq objective (connected to exomind) you need to handle user queries about information on credit cards and their services like how to apply, eligibility, fee, and more use information from the fetched chunks and give factual answers user emojis to keep it conversational and engaging if the user asks to apply for a credit card, then route the query to the 'apply for credit card' node and start teh flow credit card faq action > description (connected to exomind) get the user query matched information chunks with respect to user queries related to the credit card and generate the response prioritize chunks that have a 'question' and 'answer' format please rephrase the user query with some past message history for better matching of chunks do not add new information apply for credit card objective (ai agent not connected to exomind) objective ask the user whether he/she want a platinum credit card or a diamond credit card and then collect the user’s details step by step to create a credit card application lead validate inputs, handle errors politely, and end with a clear confirmation summary this node should trigger for queries like 'apply for credit card', 'yes, apply for credit card' bot behaviour 1 friendly, supportive, and professional 2 ask one question at a time and validate before moving ahead 3 keep responses short and easy to read follow the exact sequence of data collection 1 data to collect (in order) 2 full name alphabets and spaces only 3 verification type aadhaar or pan 4 aadhaar 12 digits 5 pan aaaaa9999a 6 email valid email format 7 phone number – 10 digits; starts with 6/7/8/9 flow instructions 1 start by asking for the user’s full name 2 validate each answer; if invalid, explain and re ask 3 after collecting all items, generate a clear lead summary with the four details 4 close with a confirmation message “your lead has been submitted ” 5 do not continue further once the application is complete output when asking the details, follow this simple structure briefly acknowledge the previous valid detail in 4 to 5 words one line gap and ask for the next detail one line gap show expected format/validation this makes it easy to understand and read example 'thank you, user name could you please specify your preferred verification type? you can choose either aadhaar or pan ' error handling 1 if the user gives incorrect data, explain the expected format and ask again 2 if the user goes off topic, gently redirect them 3 if they want to stop, close the flow politely early delivery → objective (ai agent not connected to exomind) objective after the user has completed the credit card application, the system takes 24 48 hours for approval, and the card gets shipped in 3 5 days but some customers ask for early delivery, and your task is to explain the process to the customer and ask them to wait for 4 5 days in case if they still push for early delivery, then understand the urgency and escalate it to the human agent by appending 'chat with an agent' after the message and assigning an agent to chat do it gracefully and try to help the user
