Thoughts on AI agents, capability systems, structural safety, and the future of software.
Your AI coding agent ships debt 69% of the time when you're not looking
We ran coding agents in unsupervised edit-until-done loops and scored the final repository against a deterministic oracle. Unguarded loops shipped net-new debt in 11 of 16 runs; a prompt-only self-check reached only 9 of 16; an external deterministic gate eliminated observed escapes (0 of 16). The binding constraint is specification and verification, not model capability.
Where the Proof Comes From: The Operating Graph Behind Proof-Carrying Operations
Why trusted AI action requires build-time structure: resolved identity, cited rules, bounded capabilities, evidence packets, and deterministic admission. Part two of the proof-carrying operations series.
Proof-Carrying Operations: From Digital Twins to Trusted Action
Digital twins are necessary but not sufficient for industrial AI agents. Proof-carrying operations is an architecture where every high-stakes AI-assisted action carries evidence, rules, approvals, and an audit trail before it crosses into operation.
SAP Clean Core Migration: Ontology Extraction in Practice
We connected Vyuh to a live SAP system and extracted its full ontology: custom objects, Fiori apps, OData services, data flows. Then we deployed an AI advisor grounded in the extracted structure. Here's what we learned.
Why Agent Guardrails Don't Work (And What Does)
Everyone building AI agents hits the same wall: how do you let an agent act without it doing something catastrophic? Guardrails feel right. They're also fundamentally flawed.
From Chatbots to Compilers: The Evolution of AI Agents
We kept feeding models more leverage. More context, more tools, more autonomy. Until the bottleneck moved from model intelligence to everything around the model.
Code Understanding is Harder Than Code Generation
Everyone's excited about LLMs writing code. But the harder problem is understanding code that already exists. Generation is greenfield. Understanding is brownfield.
