Research Workflows

Day 2 - Block 5

Workflow first

How to use AI in practice?

Some ideas

Using Github

Embrace the role of an architect

  1. Write Github Issues
  2. Hand Issue to an AI agent
  3. Review their proposal (Pull request)

This is integrated with Github; Hence pretty save!

An Issue

Title: Add verification checklist to E06 page

Why
- Groups skip verification notes
- Review discussion gets uneven

Done when
- E06 page shows 3-step checklist
- rubric mentions verification note
- page builds without errors

Create issue with gh

You can teach an agent to use the CLI

gh issue create \
  --title "Add verification checklist to E06 page" \
  --body-file issue.md

Fresh session handoff

Read GitHub issue #17 in this repo.
Create a branch, implement the change,
run relevant checks, and open a PR.
Use the issue as the source of truth.

AI changes the timing of actions

  1. Think
  2. Prompt
  3. Wait
  4. Review

We can lean into this
