# Alternative to PFA

**Please find the attached** is overly used and lost its essence, this creates a sense of flaky feeling to the email body. It would be more thoughtful to alter this sentence unique to the context. People are smart - they do not like to be told!

### Few alternatives

1. This mail contains the proposal documents.
2. I've attached my portfolio.
3. I've kept contract documents in this email.
4. Please refer to the attached document for more details. (contextual)

### Attachment Etiquette

1. Check for the quality of the attachment
   * [x] &#x20;Format, extension of the file
   * [x] The reader has the software to open?
   * [x] security scan
   * [x] Password protected, if confidential.
2. Inform the reader that the email contains attachments.
3. Attaching huge files is not helpful. Upload them to cloud storage and attach a link.
4. Do attach!

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://i.janardhanpulivarthi.com/season-1/alternative-to-pfa.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
