# outcome The outcome determines whether or not an action will be triggered when the condition alternative is met. There has to be an outcome defined for each alternative. The only options for action entries are yes ("y") and no ("n"). * If all conditions specified by an alternative are met and the outcome is "y", then the associated action will be performed. * If all conditions specified by an alternative are met but the outcome is "n", the associated action will not be performed. * If not all conditions specified by an alternative are met, the associated action will not be performed, even if the outcome is "y". --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
