OVERVIEW

USE CASE

A practical application

Prepare a website comparison report, then separately verify claims and cited sources.

How to judge the outcome

Before starting, define the expected artifact, authorized data, success criteria and actions requiring approval. Keep source links or files. Compare claimed success to the actually observed outcome.

GETTING STARTED

Before your first task

In Manus, choose the appropriate task mode and specify expected deliverables, browsing boundaries and requested sources.

Read setup prerequisites, licensing, model requirements and account restrictions on the provider site. Never paste API keys into a public page or a shared prompt.

RECOMMENDED WORKFLOW

Four steps for a controlled evaluation

  1. 01

    Define research scope

  2. 02

    Check agent mode availability

  3. 03

    Review operations and credits

  4. 04

    Validate deliverables

CRITICAL EVALUATION

Limitations and safeguards

Features, quotas and pricing change. Actions on connected services require permission review.

Evaluate answer quality, tool selection, permissions, reproducibility, total cost and prompt injection risk separately. If the agent can send, delete, pay or publish, require explicit confirmation and verify the outcome in the destination system.

Criteria to check before adoption
  • Authorized data and scope
  • Actual actions and approval requirements
  • Evidence, traces and rollback
  • Maintenance, versions, accessibility and access terms
