The outcome
Publish a bot that reliably performs one defined job without misleading users about its capabilities.
Step by step
A workflow you can repeat.
- 01
Define the audience, narrow job, allowed inputs, output format, limitations, and escalation behavior.
- 02
Choose a prompt bot, API bot, or Canvas app based on the actual interaction and control required.
- 03
Write concise system instructions and test normal, ambiguous, adversarial, and unsupported requests.
- 04
Review privacy permissions, provider policies, branding, attribution, and whether the bot should stay private.
- 05
Publish with an accurate description and monitor feedback, failures, cost, and policy changes.
Working standard
What good use looks like.
- Do not impersonate official bots.
- State real limitations.
- Keep sensitive workflows private by default.
