The User Can See It. The Agent Cannot.
An analysis of why agentic interfaces need an explicit coherence contract between the state shown to the user and the state an agent can actually address, inspect, or recover.
The Exit Route Is Part of Model Choice
A model can be capable and still be a brittle dependency. This analysis treats access, integration, state, deployment, and fallback fitness as part of model selection.
A Scorecard Is Not a Release Gate
Why an evaluation result only becomes a governance control when it is tied to decision ownership, operational consequences, safeguards, and a defined route to reconsideration.
