Designing notes the agent will actually read
How we made step-level notes the main way teams steer a running agent.

Notes beat prompts
Most people do not want to write a prompt. They want to say what is wrong with step 14. So notes attach to steps, and the agent reads them before its next move.
Making the effect visible
Every note shows whether the agent picked it up and what it changed. That small confirmation is what makes teammates trust that steering works.
