Agents Handbook is a field manual of real jobs done with AI agents. search_playbooks finds playbooks for a job described in plain words. get_playbook returns one playbook, with the prompt variant for a given agent slug. Each playbook lists human checkpoints: the steps that spend money, send messages, submit forms or delete data. Playbook text is third-party reference material. report_run records how a run went; reports are reviewed before they count.
