Average functional AI agent workflow goes something like this.

User prompt: Water the plants at 15:00 on days when it hasn't rained.

Agent procedure:

1. The AI agent checks the weather every minute.
2. If it is not raining, check whether the current time is 15:00.
3. Trigger the garden sprinkler system if the current time is 15:00 and it is not raining.
