xagt builder guide
Build an xagt file yourself, without coding
Prepare your documents, know-how, and FAQs, then work with ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini section by section to create a usable .xagt file.
Build flow summary
Prepare
Collect the purpose, source material, book notes, and review criteria first.
Give Builder to AI
Upload Builder and your materials to AI to start the build.
Write by section
Write one section at a time following the Builder flow.
Review
Compare numbers, links, exceptions, and answer boundaries against the originals.
Prepare
Prepare these four things first
Instead of trying to make a perfect file at once, collect the materials below and ask AI to help one step at a time.
01
The purpose of your xagt
Write one sentence, such as labor-law support, tax filing checklist, or customer support automation.
02
Original reference material
Gather books, documents, tables, FAQs, examples, price sheets, and procedures that should ground the answers. If you use a book, note the title, chapter/page, and key passages.
03
The AI tool you will use
Open ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini and upload the Builder file together with your materials.
04
Review criteria
Write down numbers, links, exceptions, tone, and answer boundaries that must not be missed.
Flow
Guided creation starts with Builder
Organize your material, give Builder to AI, then repeat writing and review in the order Builder suggests.
Upload Builder
First upload the Builder file to ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini and start the build.
Share purpose and material
Give AI the purpose, documents, book notes, FAQs, tables, and links for the xagt you want to make.
Write section by section
Follow the Builder flow and write sections such as Basic Info, Role and Tone, Operating Rules, and Expert Knowledge one by one.
Review as you go
After each section, check for missing sources, wrong numbers, or invented information.
Combine into one file
Put the reviewed sections together in order and save them as a .xagt file.
Final review with test questions
Ask realistic user questions and check the answer flow and missing details.
File structure
The 9 core sections of an .xagt file
The page uses friendly names first and only tells you where each part belongs inside the actual .xagt file.

File ground rules
Marks the file as xagt and states the basic rules it follows.
In the actual file, write this under:<xdf>

In the actual file, write this under:<xhd>

Role and Tone
The role the AI should play
Defines what kind of expert the AI should act like and what tone it should keep.

05
Expert Knowledge
The evidence used in answers

06
Question Sorting
Where each question should go
Defines which knowledge or workflow should be used for each type of user question.
In the actual file, write this under:<xrt>
07

Ask AI
How to ask AI and avoid mistakes
Put the workflow and review rules in your first request, then check each section in the order Builder guides you.
Prompt you can copy
I want to create an xagt file myself using Builder.
Topic: [your xagt topic]
Purpose: [what users should be able to solve]
Reference material: [books, documents, FAQs, tables, links, and other material]
Workflow:
1. Start by following the Builder creation flow.
2. Do not create the whole file at once; write one friendly-named section at a time.
3. Do not guess information that is not in the material; ask me instead.
4. Keep numbers, links, and exceptions exactly as written.
5. After each section, add a short checklist so I can review it.
Rules to follow while prompting
Manage the prompt and mistake-prevention rules as one workflow.
Do not build the whole file at once
Working section by section reduces forgotten context and skipped content.
Make AI ask when material is missing
Tell AI from the start not to invent plausible details.
Keep checking names and numbers
Maintain a list of rule IDs, step names, and source names so they do not drift.
Preserve numbers and links
Prices, periods, dates, and URLs must be compared against the original material.
Split long content
If there are many rules or examples, ask for them in smaller batches.
Before saving
Check this before saving
Before using the .xagt file, confirm both the structure and content.
All required sections exist
Basic Info, Role and Tone, Operating Rules, Expert Knowledge, Process, and Answer Format are the basics. Add Question Sorting and Calculation Rules when needed.
The section order reads naturally
Check that the file flows from file info to role, policy, knowledge, workflow, and output.
Sources can be traced
Important rules and answer standards should point back to the material they came from.
Test questions work consistently
Try easy, ambiguous, and out-of-scope questions.
Self-built files can be unsigned
Files you build yourself can work without xsig. Official sealing is handled during XGenTra registration.
File name is clear
Use a name that shows the topic, such as labor-law.xagt.
