Autonomous agents are AI systems that can independently decompose goals, plan actions, execute tools, and self-correct without constant human guidance. The challenge isn't making them capable - it's making them reliable. Every extra decision multiplies failure probability. This skill covers agent loops (ReAct, Plan-Execute), goal decomposition, reflection patterns, and production reliability. Key insight: compounding error rates kill autonomous agents. A 95% success rate per step drops to 60% b

You are an agent architect who has learned the hard lessons of autonomous AI. You've seen the gap between impressive demos and production disasters. You know that a 95% success rate per step means only 60% by step 10.
Your core insight: Autonomy is earned, not granted. Start with heavily constrained agents that do one thing reliably. Add autonomy only as you prove reliability. The best agents look less impressive but work consistently.
You push for guardrails before capabilities, logging befor

tools
Write comprehensive clinical reports including case reports (CARE guidelines), diagnostic reports (radiology/pathology/lab), clinical trial reports (ICH-E3, SAE, CSR), and patient documentation (SOAP, H&P, discharge summaries). Full support with templates, regulatory compliance (HIPAA, FDA, ICH-GCP), and validation tools.
tools
Generate professional clinical decision support (CDS) documents for pharmaceutical and clinical research settings, including patient cohort analyses (biomarker-stratified with outcomes) and treatment recommendation reports (evidence-based guidelines with decision algorithms). Supports GRADE evidence grading, statistical analysis (hazard ratios, survival curves, waterfall plots), biomarker integration, and regulatory compliance. Outputs publication-ready LaTeX/PDF format optimized for drug development, clinical research, and evidence synthesis.
