The outcome
Help teammates reproduce a reliable Devin outcome without copying a vague mega-prompt.
Step by step
A workflow you can repeat.
- 01
Choose a repeated task with a known successful session and separate durable repository guidance into Knowledge.
- 02
Define the outcome, required user inputs, setup, procedure, specifications, forbidden actions, and delivery format.
- 03
Write imperative steps that cover setup through verification while leaving legitimate implementation choices open.
- 04
Test the Playbook on a low-risk example and compare its result, cost, interventions, and failure points with the original.
- 05
Publish with a unique macro, review version history, and revise it when dependencies or team practices change.
Working standard
What good use looks like.
- Use Knowledge for conventions.
- State postconditions precisely.
- Test every Playbook before team rollout.
