# Best Practices

## Best Practices


- **Atomic Actions**: Each action should have one clear purpose
- **Explicit Preconditions**: All requirements must be verifiable
- **Predictable Effects**: Action outcomes should be consistent
- **Realistic Costs**: Use costs to guide optimal path selection
- **Replan Early**: Detect failures quickly and adapt
- **Parallel Where Possible**: Execute independent actions concurrently
