mind typing this up? i've got a basic GPT -> Claude workflow going for now
https://gist.github.com/githubcustomerserviceistrash/c716e76...
I should mention I made that one for my research/stats workflow, so there's some specific stuff in there for that, but you can prompt chat gpt to generalize it.
I mean, damn. Are terms like “executable oracles” and “hermetic boots” related to your domain, or are you using these as terms of art for an agent? Oracle being a source of truth, hermetic meaning no external dependencies or side effects - definitions in furtherance of your request for concise language. Would love to understand more.
This prompt is for scientific research. In general my goal is to instruct the agent to build as much validation scaffolding as possible, so rather than holding its hand I can just give it a series of concrete hurdles and tell it not to come back until they're met. I don't want it finishing the basic tasks and coming back to me saying the app is "production ready," I want to come back after a few hours to the agent having "proven a spec" with a demo or a paper that I can iterate on.
My tactic is to work with Gemini to build a dense summary of the project and create a high level plan of action, then take that to gpt5 and have it try to improve the plan, and convert it to a hyper detailed workflow xml document laying out all the steps to implement the plan, which I then hand to claude.
This avoids pretty much all of Claude's unplanned bumbling.
