reasoning and decision-making 02 Tools External functions or APIs the agent can use to take action 03 Instructions Explicit guidelines and guardrails defining how the 
 agent behaves Here’s what this looks like library or building directly from scratch.

elsewhere. This simple ATOM program instruments all of an (already compiled) program’s load and store instructions, adding a call to a function before each. Therefore, ATOM disassembles a program, instruments memory), or simulate details such as non-architectural state (shadow registers, etc), timing of instructions, caches, memory, etc. This is very slow to interpret. Embra is the first machine simulator to from original source to IR. Also, some IRs have easier to analyze structure Such as: * “Which instructions use this result?” * “What is the control flow that leads here?”— 2006 Design of the Java HotSpot

Practices 54 Provide examples 54 Design with simplicity 55 Be specific about the output 56 Use Instructions over Constraints 56 Control the max token length 58 Use variables in prompts 58 Experiment optimal balance between determinism and randomness. Prompting techniques LLMs are tuned to follow instructions and are trained on large amounts of data so they can understand a prompt and generate an answer the LLM to get started with. This input could be anything: a question, a start of a story, or instructions. The name zero-shot stands for ’no examples’. Prompt Engineering February 2025 14 Let’s use Vertex
