Q: Handling Multiple Prompts in One Agent
I would like to know how to use multiple prompts for different suggested message. Currently I want to write a Youtube Script Writer. One prompt to research title, one prompt to create suggested titles, another prompt for thumbnail, and so on. Do I need to wrapped up into one prompt? Or I put it as tables on the Knowledge?

For a structured process like generating different parts of a YouTube script (title research, title options, thumbnail prompt), the best approach isn't one giant agent prompt or using Knowledge tables for prompts.
Instead, build a Workflow. Create separate steps (nodes) within the workflow for each specific task:
- One LLM node to research titles.
- Another LLM node to generate suggested titles based on the research.
- A third LLM node to create thumbnail prompts based on the chosen title or topic.
- You could even add an image generation node after that.
This is good template: https://agenticflow.ai/app/explore/workflow/9b649851-a9b1-4571-82ac-6c0a901cf0ec please clone it and edit.
For processing multiple video ideas, use the "Run on Table" feature with this workflow. Check out this youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yk6e7PPWOKo
If you prefer conversational control, you can equip an Agent with this completed workflow as a tool. Then, you can just tell the agent, "Run the YouTube script workflow for [topic]" and it will execute the multi-step process. You can also connect MCPs (like the YouTube MCP) to the agent for actions like uploading the final video.

Hi, your provided template (Write Blog Post + Generate Images) is like doing everything in a single run. What if I need to do it step by step, based on approval in each step? (1) So I need create multiple mini-workflows? (2) If the Youtube script I need to always repurpose to 3 different forms (Linkedin post, Threads, and Newsletter), what is the best approach for generating 3 outputs?
Hey Menteely!
1. Approvals: Yep, break into mini-workflows for now. An "Approval" node is planned!
2. 3 Outputs: Use one workflow with three separate LLM nodes, each prompted for LinkedIn, Threads, and Newsletter format.
3. Sub-Workflows: Yes! Use the "Call Other Workflow" node to run one workflow from inside another – like inception! 👍

Thank your for your fast response, it's well explained. What I mean by approval is that it's kind of choosing multi-options (for example which video outline will be included from the suggestion on the output), not Yes/No single option. I tried to replicate Subscribr - a youtube app (sold in Appsumo). I hope it can be considered for the future development.
Hey Menteely,
Got it, thanks! That's a classic "human-in-the-loop" for choosing the best option. You're spot on – we've discussed this internally.
Could you add your specific use case (how you'd like to select from multiple options, maybe referencing Subscribr) to our roadmap? It really helps us prioritize!
