Overview
I had one agent Bot, which handles my speaking gigs, hunt me down to tell me it noticed that I had gotten airplane reservations on the wrong days for some speeches.
Workflow
A speaking-gig management agent detected incorrect flight dates and requested user permission to coordinate with a travel agent. Upon approval, the two agents communicated to reschedule the flights. The human role was limited to granting initial authorization, with no further involvement described in the source.
Reported result
The source states that the agents 'rescheduled everything,' but provides no verified metrics, confirmation of successful bookings, or details on the final itinerary. The outcome is anecdotal and unmeasured. A proposed acceptance check would be verifying the new flight dates against the speech calendar via a third-party confirmation email.
Human role
The original post does not say how a person stayed involved.
Limitations
Prerequisites include two distinct, interoperable agents with access to calendar and booking systems. The source notes the agent has a 'pottymouth,' implying potential inappropriate language or behavior risks. Integration uncertainty exists regarding how the agents authenticated and shared data securely.
Try it
Act as a workflow designer. I have a speaking-gig agent and a travel agent. [replaceable inputs: speech calendar URL, flight booking API access, user email]. Step 1: Configure the speaking agent to scan for date mismatches between events and flights. Step 2: If a mismatch is found, the agent must pause and send a notification to me with the specific error and proposed fix. Step 3: Wait for my explicit 'approve' command. Step 4: Only after approval, allow the speaking agent to initiate a secure handshake with the travel agent to request rebooking. Step 5: The travel agent must return a confirmation number. Step 6: Both agents must log the action. Do not execute any real bookings or send emails during this dry run; simulate the API responses. Measure success by verifying that no action occurred without my explicit approval and that the simulation correctly identified the date conflict.
