Tips for Troubleshooting Loops

As a 'Research Preview' product, Operator can occasionally get stuck in a loop. Use 'clever prompting' by providing more granular instructions or directing the agent to a specific URL to help it break out of the error.

Save Instructions as Presets

Once you find a 'clever prompt' that works effectively for a specific task, save it as a preset. This ensures similar tasks in the future run smoothly without needing close monitoring.

Automating Slack Messaging Using Operator

  1. Launch the OpenAI Operator agent in your web browser.
  2. Enter your main task in the input field—for example, an instruction to send a message to your team on Slack.
  3. Monitor Operator's progress; if the agent gets stuck or takes the wrong approach, provide a more specific follow-up prompt.
  4. Direct Operator to access 'app.slack.com' directly to use the web version of the application.
  5. Let Operator navigate the Slack interface to find the correct channel or individual.
  6. Operator will generate the message content using GPT-4 based on the context you provided.
  7. Watch the agent click the 'Send' button to complete the message delivery autonomously.
