Instruction documents use responsibilities, guidelines, then ordered steps
Description
The runtime treats instructions as the agent's standing prompt. A one-line goal produces inconsistent navigation. Microsoft's instruction framework is three layers: responsibilities (what the agent owns), guidelines (rules for every task), and instructions (ordered steps per task, with substeps). That structure is BC-specific, not generic prompt flavour.
Best Practice
Store a document that states responsibilities, then non-negotiable guidelines (when to request a review, when not to post), then numbered steps for each task. Keep that text in the resource you pass to SetInstructions.
See sample: instruction-structure-is-role-rules-steps.good.al.
Anti Pattern
A single sentence such as Check customer credit for the sales order. Detection signal: instruction resource or SetInstructions payload with no responsibilities / guidelines / steps sections.
See sample: instruction-structure-is-role-rules-steps.bad.al.
