@admin·5 min read·Agent Engineering Multi-step agent errors often occur in intermediate tool results and state changes. This article explains how to save desensitized trajectories, build deterministic replays, handle external dependencies, and turn production incidents into reliable regression tests.

@admin·4 min read·Agent Engineering A production agent cannot be just a while loop. This article uses an explicit state machine to split planning, tool calls, waiting for approval, recovery, and terminal states, and provides transition constraints, persistence fields, and testing methods.

This article designs an observability solution covering traces, tokens, tool calls, evaluation feedback, and privacy governance."

@admin·5 min read·Agent Engineering An agent should not hold a master credential covering an entire session. This article designs short-lived capability leases issued by a policy broker, binding tools, resources, call counts, executor keys, and a revocation epoch.

@admin·5 min read·Agent Engineering A successfully fetched tool list does not mean the Agent sees a complete and still-authorized capability set. This article combines paginated discovery, descriptor validation, policy filtering, and invocation binding into a versioned catalog generation that blocks half-loaded catalogs and late-arriving changes from reaching the execution plane.

@admin·6 min read·Agent Engineering A successful tool call does not mean the returned content is trustworthy. This article designs a bounded response envelope, strict JSON Schema, typed fact extraction, HTML and URL sanitization, malicious fixture testing, and per-tool isolated rollback.

@admin·5 min read·Agent Engineering External web pages, RAG fragments, and tool results remain untrusted even after being summarized. This article designs taint tags that propagate with data across steps, deterministic sink policies, audit events, attack testing, and isolated rollback.

@admin·5 min read·Cloud Native Agent failures are usually not service crashes, but wrong tool selection, stalled loops, permission waits, or runaway budgets. This article designs a replayable Agent observability solution around task traces, step status, toolchains, manual confirmation, and runtime budgets.

@admin·4 min read·AI Coding "Local mode" and "enterprise no-training" are not enough to prove code stays within bounds. This article binds repository classification, task materials, execution location, model calls, and residue cleanup into a verifiable routing contract, and defines safe degradation when cloud capability is unavailable.

@admin·6 min read·AI Coding Being able to export chat JSON doesn't mean you can leave a coding tool. This article defines a content-addressed exit package covering repository rules, task checkpoints, approvals, tool configuration, and audit receipts, and uses a cold start with an alternative tool to prove migration and revocation are truly complete.

@admin·5 min read·AI Coding Example-based tests easily share blind spots with the model implementation. This article extracts invariants from requirements, designs generators, shrinkers, and deterministic seeds, and uses counterexample regression gates to validate the input space of AI-generated code.
