Why it matters
Automation used to mean wiring up rigid rules. Agents can handle the messy, in-between steps that rules miss, which makes many more workflows worth automating. It is one of 65 sightings filed under Automation on Agent Sightings (number 43 by interest), and one of 29 involving Replit Agent.
How you could try it
Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Replit Agent or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.
I want an agent to take on this workflow, show its working, and wait for approval on anything that changes a system or contacts someone. The tool in the source case was Replit Agent.
Tip: Start small: run it once on a low-stakes example, read what the agent did, and only then let it run on real work.
