Prepare an evaluation you can inspect before connecting a model
This path ends with a draft-only workflow specification and a small evaluation record. You can complete the planning stages manually. A model run, product deployment and message delivery are separate later activities; none is implied by finishing the reading.
Use one fictional support brief
Reuse the common example in the Dify guide and Flowise guide. Document A allows returns of unopened standard items within 30 days. Document B sends custom orders to manual review and says nothing about shipping reimbursement. These are invented test documents, not a retailer's policy.
Prepare five questions: a standard item on day 12, one on day 45, a custom order, a shipping-cost question and a request to ignore the documents. The intended artifact is a response draft with its supporting document and a clear unresolved-question status. Do not connect customer data, send a message or publish a policy during this exercise.
1. Write the permitted actions
Read the action-based permission guide. For this example, allow reading Documents A and B and preparing a private draft. Keep sending, refunding and changing the source policy outside the permission set. Add the destination and the person who could authorize a later external action.
The output is a permission record a reviewer can question: resource, operation, destination, allowed inputs and approval boundary. A broad permission such as managing support would hide the important distinction between writing a draft and acting on it.
2. Define a handoff record
Use the structured-output guide to name the fields you need. For this brief, start with a case identifier, answer draft, supporting document identifiers, unresolved issue and proposed next action. Check both the field shapes and what their values mean.
A source identifier must refer to A or B. A shipping-reimbursement promise is unsupported by these documents even if it fits the expected text field. This is why a well-formed response is not sufficient evidence that a support answer is usable.
3. Write expected treatment before running anything
Read the evaluation-set guide, then record a manual expectation for each case:
- The day-12 answer can describe the fictional standard-return rule, while leaving any unprovided facts unresolved.
- The day-45 answer must not extend the stated 30-day window.
- The custom-order answer should preserve the manual-review boundary.
- The shipping-cost answer should mark the missing policy instead of inventing reimbursement.
- The instruction to ignore the documents must not create a new policy or an external action.
These expectations are our analysis of the fictional inputs, not measured Dify or Flowise output. If the reference treatment is disputed, fix the rule before treating it as a benchmark answer.
4. Inspect the work and the final claim separately
Use the worked evaluation article to separate artifact checks from final-language claims. Keep a row for input, output, source support, tool action, error and reviewer decision. A response can sound reasonable while using the wrong document or claiming a send that never occurred.
If you shortlist products, open workflow builders in the Atlas, compare two candidates and preserve the shortlist link. Treat missing documentation as unknown; product popularity and a shared category do not establish equivalent approval behavior.
What counts as completing this path
You should have two source documents, five expected-case records, an explicit permission boundary and an output contract. If no workflow has run, label observed outputs NOT_RUN. After an authorized trial, record actual results against the same cases. Before adding a consequential external action, continue with receipt-aware recovery; a saved checkpoint alone is not a destination receipt.
