The Sandbox Became a Failure Domain
How sandbox lifecycles turn agent deployment boundaries into recovery decisions about state survival, restartability, provisioning latency, and replay.

The Host Surface Is Part of the Agent Contract
Embedding an agent in Slack, mobile, or another work surface changes more than the interface: it changes context, identity, triggers, visibility, authority, and the record left behind.
The Risk Chain Already Includes Human Decisions
A source-grounded analysis of how objectives, access, incentives, safeguards, monitoring, and institutional response already shape realized AI risk.
The Agent Loop Has a Cache Locality Problem
Repeated agent turns can turn reusable context into a latency and capacity problem when cache locality, prefill pressure, and live load stop lining up.
The Agent Budget Became an Economic Authority Boundary
A source-grounded analysis of why agent budgets become delegated-authority boundaries once automated work can trigger paid external actions.
Agent Memory Needed an Admission Gate
Why durable agent memory needs a governed admission path before information becomes persistent context.
Tool Output Is Not Instruction: A Prompt-Injection Boundary
Why legitimate tool results need a separate instruction-authority boundary when untrusted or attacker-controlled text enters an agent's context.
When an AI Agent Moves, What Makes It the Same Agent?
A runtime change can preserve an agent's name, memory, and files while leaving a harder question unresolved: which history, authority, state, and behavior actually carried forward?
Multi-Agent Delegation Has a Context Cost
A pre-fan-out test for deciding when agent specialization or parallelism is worth the context a handoff can discard or force the system to reconstruct.
