ASSISTANT BEHAVIOR REVIEW · Workflow idea

Compare open-ended answers with reference-backed research.

Try two kinds of requests: a conversational prompt that invites a direct response and a factual question that benefits from checking a reference. Keep the original question and supporting context visible so a person can assess accuracy and usefulness.

01 / The starting point

A clear request.
A useful direction.

A person’s question submitted for a conversational or factual response

“Prepare a conversational response or consult an approved reference for a factual question, then present the answer and context for a human quality check.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps a team evaluate how an assistant handles both open-ended conversation and factual questions that need supporting information.

  1. Choose the question to explore

    Decide whether the request is open-ended or asks for a factual detail that should be checked against a reference.

  2. Prepare an answer suited to the request

    Respond conversationally to broad prompts and use relevant reference material when the question calls for a factual check.

  3. Keep supporting context visible

    Show which information comes from a reference and retain enough context for someone to assess the response.

  4. Check the answer for accuracy and relevance

    Have a person compare factual statements with the source and confirm that the response addresses the original question.

  5. Decide whether the answer is ready to use

    Approve suitable answers for their intended audience and route uncertain or consequential questions to a subject-matter owner.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

A response matched to the kind of question, with reference context included when research is used and review pending before the answer is relied upon.

The handoff

A response matched to the kind of question, with reference context included when research is used and review pending before the answer is relied upon.

Keep in mind

A fluent answer is not proof of accuracy, and a reference may not address the question. Verify factual claims against reliable material and keep high-impact or sensitive answers with a qualified person.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose the questions and audience

Define the kinds of conversational and factual requests being evaluated and who may review the results.

Select trusted reference material

Choose appropriate sources for factual questions and decide how answers should identify their supporting context.

Set answer boundaries and escalation rules

Document what the assistant may address, which claims need review, and when a qualified person should take over.

Test open-ended and factual prompts

Try a broad prompt and a checkable factual question, then review the response quality and source context.
