# Context Engineering
## When to Use
- Delegating a complex task to an AI agent
- An agent keeps repeating the wrong approach
- Agent quality drops as the context grows longer
- Designing a pipeline where multiple agents collaborate
> Difference from `context-prime` (Copilot-specific):
>
> - `context-prime`: loads live project context at session start
> - `context-engineering`: structures the best possible information for a specific task
