How should I brief a repository-aware coding agent?

Lead with the desired end state and observable acceptance criteria. Include the working directory, relevant constraints, validation commands, and authority boundaries for external actions.

A reusable workflow

From context to checked output

This four-stage diagram shows the quality gates to apply when using a Codex & Agentic Coding prompt.

  1. 1Describe outcome
  2. 2Share constraints
  3. 3Let it inspect
  4. 4Verify evidence

Which workflow should you choose?

Use Codex-style agentic prompts for multi-file work with tools and verification. A short code-generation prompt is enough only for isolated, disposable snippets.

Example: Add an accessible feature across UI, tests, and documentation while preserving unrelated worktree changes.
