  • {{criteria}}: Specific criteria for selecting content (e.g., relevance, authority, recency).
  • {{source_types}}: Types of sources to consider (e.g., industry reports, user-generated content, news sites).
  • {{presentation_format}}: How the curated content should be displayed (e.g., summaries, digests, resource lists).

Guardrails

  • Flag if the user's criteria are too vague and suggest more specific guidelines.
