Despite the better user understanding and human-like responses, their **lack of controllability** remains a key challenge, often leading to unfocused conversations or task failure. To address this, we introduce Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) to regulate dialogue flow. Specifically, we propose **ChatSOP**, a novel SOP-guided Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) planning framework designed to enhance the controllability of LLM-driven dialogue
The rapid advancement and deployment of LLMs have highlighted their 'lack of controllability' as a critical bottleneck for reliable, task-oriented applications, driving the need for new architectural solutions.
Improving LLM controllability is essential for scaling AI agents beyond simple tasks, enabling more complex and reliable automation across various industries.
The proposed ChatSOP framework introduces a structured, MCTS-guided planning layer that can significantly enhance the reliability and goal-orientation of LLM-powered dialogue agents, moving them closer to practical deployment.

More robust and predictable AI agents become feasible for complex enterprise and consumer applications.
Increased adoption of AI agents could lead to significant collapse of white-collar workflows and demand for human-in-the-loop oversight.
The enhanced programmability of dialogue agents might accelerate the development of more sophisticated autonomous AI systems capable of executing multi-step strategic objectives.
