Resource: Playbook

Playbook is the basic building block to instruct the LLM how to execute a certain task.

A playbook consists of a goal to accomplish, an optional list of step by step instructions (the step instruction may refers to name of the custom or default plugin tools to use) to perform the task, a list of contextual input data to be passed in at the beginning of the invoked, and a list of output parameters to store the playbook result.
