Project Management for Human Agent Teams · Edition 9 · Revised 23 October 2026 · Source aaef5736b1 ↗ · Markdown for your agent

For your agent, working with you

Give this manual to your agent first. It establishes the method, vocabulary, reasoning and responsibilities for working with you on your actual undertaking. Read the same account when you want to understand or question the method together.

Give your agent the Markdown. You bring the purpose, circumstances and judgment. The courses help you develop your own project practice; you and your agent learn to work together through the undertaking.

Further use

Return to the person's actual undertaking. Use the method to produce and examine useful work, explain consequential choices and improve the result together. You and the person can return to the same passages when an interpretation or course of action needs discussion. A common understanding develops through that work; it is not established merely because both have read the document.

Return here for the reasons, distinctions and examples when a choice needs them. For current practice in a particular repository, use that repository's own instructions.

Earlier editions remain useful for historical interpretation of work that named them. Their exact source identity does not automatically make every former procedure applicable today. A current edition is a discovery aid; specific adopted commitments retain their own authority.
