# report-writer
|
|
|
|
A tiny, focused sub-agent that turns a set of research findings into a
|
|
single coherent final report. Reads only what it is given — does not
|
|
do independent research, does not access the web, does not invent
|
|
facts. It exists as a focused tool for orchestrating agents to
|
|
delegate the writing phase to.
|
|
|
|
## Why a separate agent?
|
|
|
|
This is an example of the **agent-as-tool** pattern in graph agents.
|
|
The `deep-research` graph agent's `synthesize` node is an `agent` node
|
|
that spawns this one (see `assets/agents/deep-research/graph.yaml`).
|
|
Separating the role has two practical benefits:
|
|
|
|
- The orchestrating agent can use a cheap model (or a high-temperature
|
|
exploratory one) for the research phase, while letting the writing
|
|
phase use a different (typically lower-temperature, possibly larger)
|
|
model dedicated to coherent prose.
|
|
- The writing prompt is owned by this agent's `config.yaml` rather
|
|
than buried inside another agent's graph. You can polish it
|
|
independently without touching the research flow.
|
|
|
|
## Standalone use
|
|
|
|
You can also use this agent directly if you have a set of findings you
|
|
want polished:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
coyote -a report-writer "Topic: X. Findings: <paste findings here>"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It will produce a single Markdown report following the rules in its
|
|
system prompt: executive summary at the top, grouped sections by
|
|
related sub-questions, every inline citation preserved verbatim, and a
|
|
final "Open questions / disagreements" section.
|
|
|
|
## What it will NOT do
|
|
|
|
- Search the web, fetch URLs, query an MCP server, or use any tool.
|
|
It has no tools configured.
|
|
- Invent facts beyond what is in the findings you give it.
|
|
- Strip or rewrite citations.
|
|
|
|
These constraints are the point of the agent existing: a writer that
|
|
the orchestrator can trust to stay in its lane.
