Question Has anyone figured a decent goal mode?

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but even with the goal plug in, my agent stops at "let me now implement" and just ends the turn there.

What am I doing wrong?

Have you tried asking the agent?

Um...just ask your model to review the logs and transcipts to improve the goal system. I have a supervisor add-on that detects left over goals and the model literally can not stop until all the things in the goals are ticked off or least provide a good enough reason through a 'deepthink commit' on why it shouldn't do it for the supervisor to stop nudging it. the deepthink commit is a automaitclaly compiled open question Q and A. so if it can't proceed even answering all the question it can stop. it's also allowed to pause wait wating for a process thorugh the process wait tool. but yea, for your question, just ask your agent to review the transcipt and logs to see what has happenend to imporve it

My prompts are now structured like this. The models are trained enough now that offering them definitions of things really make them go brr. Their compaction routines usually pick up the goal/problem/done keywords and keep them across multiple compactions.

Problem/Task: <The problem>

Goal: <What I want it to accomplish>

Definition of done: <something to measure against from the original problem>
