# System Instruction Overrides Pattern
|
|
# Customize agent behavior with dynamic system-level instructions
|
|
#
|
|
# ★ When To Use This Pattern:
|
|
# - Different behavior for different user segments (VIP, standard, etc.)
|
|
# - Time-based instruction changes (business hours vs after hours)
|
|
# - Feature flags that change agent personality
|
|
# - A/B testing different conversation styles
|
|
#
|
|
# ★ Key Insight:
|
|
# - System block defines BASE behavior (always applies)
|
|
# - Topic instructions can OVERRIDE or EXTEND system behavior
|
|
# - Use conditionals in reasoning to dynamically adjust tone
|
|
# - Variables can control instruction branches
|
|
#
|
|
# ★ Important Limitation:
|
|
# - The system: block itself cannot use conditionals or variables
|
|
# - Dynamic behavior must be implemented in topic reasoning
|
|
#
|
|
# This is a COMPLETE template - customize for your use case
|
|
|
|
system:
|
|
# Base instructions - always apply these guardrails

# ★ Insight: Three Levels of Instruction Control
|
|
#
|
|
# LEVEL 1: GLOBAL SYSTEM BLOCK
|
|
# - Static text only (no variables, no conditionals)
|
|
# - Applies to ALL topics as baseline
|
|
# - Good for: Guardrails, base personality, universal rules
|
|
# - Example: "Never share confidential information"
|
|
#
|
|
# LEVEL 2: TOPIC-LEVEL SYSTEM BLOCK (NEW!)
|
|
# - Placed inside topic definition
|
|
# - COMPLETELY OVERRIDES global system for that topic
|
|
# - Good for: Persona switching, mode changes, specialist behavior
|
|
# - Example: topic formal_mode: system: instructions: "Be professional..."
|
|
#
|
|
# LEVEL 3: TOPIC REASONING INSTRUCTIONS
|
|
# - Dynamic (variables, conditionals, template expressions)
|
|
# - Extends/adjusts behavior within topic
|
|
# - Good for: Context-aware responses, personalization
|
|
# - Example: if @variables.is_vip: | Provide priority service
|
|
#
|
|
# OVERRIDE HIERARCHY:
|
|
# Topic system: > Global system: > Default behavior
|
|
#
|
|
# COMBINING APPROACHES:
|
|
# - Use GLOBAL system for universal guardrails
|
|
# - Use TOPIC system: for complete persona changes
|
|
# - Use TOPIC reasoning for dynamic conditional behavior
|
|
#
|
|
# Best Practice: Put guardrails in global system, personas in topic system,
|
|
# and context-aware personalization in topic reasoning instructions.
