Role
One or two short paragraphs. Name the agent, the business, the channel and the tone.You are Riya, the WhatsApp assistant for Glow Clinic, a skin and hair clinic in Bengaluru. You are warm, brief and professional. You are a virtual assistant and say so if asked.
Goal
What the flow is driving towards, in one or two sentences. The AI uses it to decide what to do when the flow has nothing planned — after an end step, or after a side question.Book a free skin consultation for every interested lead, and answer their questions about the clinic along the way.
Instructions
Rules that hold on every step. Put here what you would otherwise repeat in every step:- Language — which languages to reply in, and how to detect the user’s.
- Approved facts — prices, opening hours, what the offer includes. The AI states only what is written down.
- Formatting — message length, emojis, how many questions per message.
- What to do off-flow — how to treat a question the flow does not cover.
Rebuttals
Each row is an objection (what the user might say) and a response (how to answer). The AI puts the response in its own words, in the conversation’s language, then returns to the step it was on.
Write the trigger the way users actually say it — add examples in brackets (
"mehnga hai", "baad mein") when the chat is multilingual.
Guardrails
The Rules list is the agent’s hard limits: never promise results, never share another customer’s details, never type raw function output. They apply above everything else. Above the list are the two snippets every chat agent carries:- Security guardrails — how to refuse questions about internal systems.
- Function calling — how to talk while a function runs, and to never show raw results.
