What's great

I am building a voice agent for lead qualification usecase for a friend's business who is running his home interiors company. I am completely new to dev ops like self hosting as well as building voice agents. So far, the MCP tools have been really powerful. I had a voice agent ready in 2 days that we went live with. We are iterating of course as we call more leads but the I think building with MCP tools was really efficient for someone like me. Really appreciate what you guys have built. I love that Dograh is open source and rhat I can self host it. I have found the support from founder prompt and really helpful in the early days of my agent building.

What needs improvement

I would like a playbook for working on prompts. The MCP tool pretty much built the entire agent for me - the node splitting, prompt structure as well as tools i need to link with my agent nodes. But I have found making minor tweaks in the production agent difficult. If theres a standard convention to do that it will really help. A lot my minor changes in the nodes, especially the global node, have broken something which was working before.

Thanks for the detailed feedback, Elias. A prompt-editing playbook with conventions for safely updating nodes, especially the global node, would be valuable. We’ll use this feedback to improve the production iteration experience.

Thank you @elias_shaik . Your review made our day. Being new to self-hosting and voice agents and going live with a lead-qualifying agent in 2 days is a great outcome.

Your point on iteration is well taken, and it's the thing we hear most: the MCP tools nail the initial build, but we haven't given you a convention for safely tweaking an agent that's already in production. A prompt playbook on what belongs in the global node vs. a task node, plus a safe-edit checklist for live agents is on our roadmap because of feedback like this.

Quick tip meanwhile — keep the global node to persona, conversation style, tone and universal guardrails mostly. When it's included in an agent node (the default), the system prompt is the global prompt followed by the node's own, in that order so anything step-specific in the global node reaches every node. Watch for the same aspect of behaviour being specified in more than one places: these shouldn't contradict, and each aspect is best kept in one place. That collision is the most common source of "this used to work."

Happy to jump on a call and understand the edits you've found risky; those are exactly what should shape the playbook.
