Instructions describe outcomes, not page action or tool names
Description
Agent tools are the UI the profile exposes. Action names and tool ids change across pages and versions. Best-practice guidance is to say what to accomplish, not which tool to invoke. Page state is also not fully in history; values needed later must be memorized. Models paste Promoted action names into the prompt.
Best Practice
Write steps as business outcomes (release the order, set the hold reason). Tell the agent to memorize identifiers it must reuse. Do not hard-code action captions or tool ids.
See sample: instructions-describe-work-not-tool-ids.good.al.
Anti Pattern
Instructions that say invoke SalesOrder.Post_Promoted or use tool page-42-action-3. Detection signal: instruction text containing Promoted action names or tool identifiers.
See sample: instructions-describe-work-not-tool-ids.bad.al.
