Lab Report Structure
Listing common mistakes per section addresses the actual failure modes students encounter, not just the ideal structure.
Help me structure a lab report for {{course_name}}.\n\nExperiment: {{experiment_name}}\nHypothesis: {{hypothesis}}\nKey variables:\n- Independent: {{independent_var}}\n- Dependent: {{dependent_var}}\n- Controlled: {{controlled_vars}}\n\nResults summary: {{results_summary}}\n\nFor each section, tell me what to include and common mistakes to avoid:\n1. Abstract (what to include in 150 words)\n2. Introduction (background, hypothesis, significance)\n3. Methods (level of detail needed)\n4. Results (how to present data, tables vs figures)\n5. Discussion (interpreting results, addressing hypothesis, limitations)\n6. Conclusion (what NOT to introduce here)\n\nDo not write the report for me. Give me a detailed framework I can fill in.

Forcing the agent to plan before acting prevents premature execution and wasted steps. Explicit dependency mapping enables parallel execution and catches logical gaps early.
Tool Selection AgentThe ReAct pattern (Reason + Act) creates an explicit reasoning trace that improves tool selection accuracy. The error-handling rule prevents infinite retry loops.
Prompt CompressorExplicitly requiring all functional requirements to be preserved prevents the model from over-compressing and losing critical instructions.
Memory Management AgentExplicit memory read/write instructions create agents that improve over time. Categorization keeps memories organized, and the deduplication rule prevents context bloat.
