Aissist Build Checklist

Last updated: May 15, 2026

Use this checklist before you test or deploy a new Aissist workflow.

Instructions and context

Make sure you:

  • keep global instructions short and direct

  • put workflow-specific rules in sub agents

  • put shared business facts in workspace context

  • avoid mixing facts, tone, and workflow logic in one long instruction

See Tune Aissist Behavior for the instruction model.

Assets

Make sure you:

  • add the sources Aissist needs for the workflow

  • remove outdated or conflicting information

  • include the exact details users need to complete the task

  • verify retrieval with Asset Debugger

See Turn Assets into AI for asset setup.

Actions

Make sure you:

  • name each action clearly

  • describe what it does and when it should run

  • define parameters with clear names and guidance

  • test action inputs and outputs with Action Debugger

Use actions when the workflow needs live data or system changes.

Sub agents

Make sure you:

  • define one clear scenario for each sub agent

  • link only the assets and actions needed for that workflow

  • set the right reply, handoff, no response, or close behavior

  • add summary or acknowledgement only when the workflow needs it

See Create Sub Agents for setup details.

Test before deployment

Make sure you:

  • test thoroughly in Simulator

  • use realistic input context, such as email or order number, when needed

  • review output context, triggered sub agents, and action calls

  • fix issues at the source, then test the same scenario again

Deploy safely

Make sure you:

  • start with one narrow managing point

  • enable the right operating mode for the workflow

  • run Auto-Pilot for a short period first

  • review live results before expanding coverage

See Deploy Gateway for deployment setup.

Best practice

Build one repeatable workflow first.

Test it, monitor it, then expand to the next workflow.
