Implement an adaptive reasoning budget mechanism. For example, allow the agent to use a 'longer' thinking process (e.g., more LLM tokens, more iterative steps) when generating initial hypotheses or performing complex data analysis, but a 'shorter' process for routine data retrieval. Test its impact on the quality of outputs and computational cost.
Adaptation plan
Keep the source stable, then change the prompt in a predictable order so the next run is easier to evaluate.
Keep stable
Preserve the rubric, target behavior, and pass-fail criteria as the baseline for evaluation.
Tune next
Adjust fixtures, mocks, and thresholds to the system under test instead of weakening the assertions.
Verify after
Make sure the prompt catches regressions instead of just mirroring the happy-path examples.
