Thesis
Once agents use tools, the risk surface moves from text generation to operational control. That makes logging, permissions, containment, and failure recovery infrastructure problems.
Outline
- Agents as operators
How tool use turns model behavior into system action.
- Infrastructure failure modes
Credential misuse, runaway loops, stale memory, action ambiguity, and partial execution.
- Reliability contracts
What agent platforms should guarantee before touching production-adjacent systems.
- Observability requirements
Minimum traces needed for incident review and rollback.
- Eval implications
How public eval harnesses can measure infrastructure risk without unsafe demonstrations.
This roadmap page frames the planned essay and remains intentionally non-confidential and public-source oriented.
