AI Agents Don’t Need More Context — They Need Typed Context
AI agents face a critical challenge: not simply a lack of context, but a failure to properly *type* it. When disparate elements like instructions and retrieved data are flattened, semantic boundaries blur, hindering performance. Our lightweight Python runtime addresses this by maintaining explicit boundaries, tracking provenance, and proactively rejecting invalid transformations. Explore the implementation and guarantees of this approach, which offers a refined solution for managing AI agent context—as discussed further in "Can an LLM Forget the Right Things?".

Context Engineering Isn’t Enough — A Loop Engineering Experiment With No LLM Inside the Loop
The conversation around loop engineering often centers on Large Language Models (LLMs), but can the architecture itself drive improved performance? This article presents a novel experiment, rigorously testing a deterministic, zero-dependency Python benchmark to isolate failures—without an LLM. Results across 300 random seeds demonstrate that goal-directed controllers consistently outperform linear pipelines in completing independent branches. Explore the architecture, benchmark, and debugging process, revealing that failure isolation is, in fact, a measurable property of control flow.
