Stop Telling Agents How — Dan Barrett, Raymond Weitekamp & Jose Montes de Oca, OpenProse

Say what you want, not how to get it. The OpenProse team shows how to write multi-agent workflows as declarative contracts in plain markdown, which any harness (Claude Code, Codex and others) can compile and run.

Demos include event-driven jobs triggered by webhooks and pull requests, a "grumpy senior" PR reviewer, and an end-to-end bank model-documentation workflow. They also discuss composing contracts, pinning a winning run into a reusable workflow, and how this compares to DSPy.
