Mode 1 — Problem-Solving

Aik dafa solve karein. Aap agent ko drive karte hain, kaam ho jata hai, aap chal dete hain.

Aap aik general agent ko drive karna seekh chuke hain — agar aap code ke saath kaam karte hain to Claude Code ya OpenCode, aur agar nahin karte to Cowork ya OpenWork. Yeh section us sab se aam cheez ke baare mein hai jo aap kabhi bhi aik agent ke saath karenge: aik real problem, aik dafa, solve karna.

Yehi Mode 1 hai. Aap aik agent kholte hain, usay aik task par lagate hain, us ke saath kaam karte hain jab tak task done na ho jaye, result lete hain, aur session band kar dete hain. Peeche kuch permanent nahin chhutta; agla problem bilkul fresh shuru hota hai. Jo kaam aap kabhi bhi aik agent ke hawale karenge us mein se zyada tar — saalon tak — Mode 1 hi hai, aur isay achhi tarah karna aik asal skill hai, clever prompts likhne se alag.

Yeh book do modes par chalti hai, aur yehi baqi har cheez ki reedh ki haddi hain:

  • Mode 1 — aik dafa solve karein (yeh section). Aap drive karte hain. Kaam one-off hota hai.
  • Mode 2 — aik worker manufacture karein (agla section). Aap aik permanent Digital FTE banate hain — aik "digital full-time employee" — jo task ko baar baar, khud se, karta hai.

Taqseem ki lakeer frequency nahin hai. Aik Mode 1 task har hafte wapas aa sakta hai (aap bas usay hath se chalate rehte hain), aur yeh Mode 1 hi rehta hai jab tak aap yeh tay na karein ke yeh itna proven ho chuka hai ke isay Mode 2 mein cross kiya jaye. Isay Mode 1 yeh baat banati hai ke har run aap drive karte hain; isay Mode 2 yeh baat banati hai ke yeh aap ke baghair chalta hai.

Jab zyada tar log aik agent hasil karte hain, woh teen cheezein bura karte hain: woh check hi nahin karte ke task agent ke andar belong karta bhi hai ya nahin, woh usay cleanly solve nahin karte, aur woh kabhi notice hi nahin karte ke jo task woh baar baar hath se dobara kar rahe hain woh mahine pehle aik permanent worker ban jana chahiye tha. Yeh section teenon ko theek karta hai — isi order mein.

Teen courses, aik raasta​

Yeh teen alag alag tips ke dher nahin hain. Yeh aik raasta hai jis ke teen stages hain, aur aap inhein order mein chalte hain.

Mode 1 ke raaste ka diagram, teen stages ke taur par, baayein se daayein. Stage 1, "Diagnose," course "Is This an Agent Problem?" hai; aik side exit note karta hai ke kuch tasks bilkul bhi agent ke kaam nahin hote aur kisi regular tool ya chatbot ki taraf chale jate hain. Stage 2, "Solve," "Problem Solving with General Agents" hai. Stage 3, "Cross," "From One-Off to Worker" hai, jis mein aik aage ko jaata hua arrow Mode 2 — Manufacturing ki taraf le jaata hai. Aik caption likhta hai: Diagnose, phir Solve, phir Cross.

  1. Diagnose — shuru karne se pehle. Zyada tar zaya hone wale agent sessions to aik lafz type karne se pehle hi haar jate hain: task asal mein aik spreadsheet ka kaam tha, ya aik chatbot ke liye sawal tha, ya usay kabhi scope hi nahin kiya gaya. Is This an Agent Problem? aap ko teen gates deta hai jo aap das minutes mein chala sakte hain — kya yeh agent ka kaam hai bhi, kya aap isay aik dafa karenge ya har hafte, aur "finished" kaisa dikhta hai — taake aap sahi task ke saath andar aayein, pehle se sorted.

  2. Solve — kaam karte hue. Sahi task hath mein hone ke saath, aap ko usay aik hi session ke andar achhi tarah solve karna hota hai. Problem Solving with General Agents is ke liye saat principles sikhata hai: chote reversible steps mein kaam karna, files ko memory ke taur par use karna, result par bharosa karne se pehle usay verify karna, aur bahut kuch. Yeh us agent mein farq hai jo bhatakta hai aur us mein jo land karta hai.

  3. Cross — jab yeh proven ho jaye. Kuch tasks wapas aate rehte hain, hafta dar hafta, har dafa usi tareeqe se solve hote hue. From One-Off to Worker aap ko dikhata hai ke aik baar baar hone wala solve kab aik permanent worker banne ke liye tayyar hai, aur usay promote kaise karna hai — us brief, us check, un steps, aur us session ko jo aap ke paas pehle se hai aisi cheez mein badalna jo aap ke baghair chalti hai. Yeh Mode 2 ki taraf jaane wala pul hai.

Diagnose, solve, cross. Teenon ko aik real task par chalayein aur aap doosre sire se ya to aik clean one-off finished ke saath niklenge, ya aik proven solution ke saath jo manufacture karne ke liye tayyar ho. Aap aik shakhs, Ana, ko pehle aur aakhri course mein follow kar sakte hain — woh apne weekly task ko gates par sort karti hai, kuch arse usay hath se solve karti hai, aur aakhir mein usay aik worker mein cross kar deti hai. Us ki kahani hi yeh raasta hai, thos shakl mein.

Pehle aap ko kya chahiye​

Yeh section yeh maan kar chalta hai ke aap pehle se aik general agent ko drive kar sakte hain. Agar aap abhi tak nahin kar sakte, to pehle General Agents section karein — Claude Code & OpenCode ya Cowork & OpenWork. Yeh Foundations ka How to Think in the AI Era bhi maan kar chalta hai: Mode 1 jitna tool ke baare mein hai utna hi apni judgment ko bachaye rakhne ke baare mein bhi. Is se theek pehle wala Personal Agent Harnesses section optional hai — Mode 1 ko kaam mein laane ke liye aap ko us ki zaroorat nahin.

Yeh kahan le jaata hai​

Zyada tar tasks yahin, Mode 1 ke andar, khatam ho jate hain: solved, shipped, done — aur yehi sahi outcome hai, koi kamtar nahin. Kuch tasks, woh jinhein aap baar baar usi tareeqe se karte rehte hain, aik permanent worker ke haqdaar ban jate hain. Jab koi ban jaye, aakhri course aap ko lakeer ke paar Mode 2 — Manufacturing mein le jaata hai, jahan aik proven solution aik Digital FTE ban jaata hai jo aap ke baghair kaam karta hai.
