01 THE ARCHITECTURE

INTENT

The beginning. Triggers, skill allowlists, sub-agent boundaries. What can agents do, and when?

RUNTIME

The infrastructure. Context compaction, progressive disclosure, sandboxed execution. The middle is shrinking, but needs architecture.

SKILLS

The library. Every failure becomes a reusable capability. PDF parsing, formatting, integrations – coded once, forever injected.

02 THE 4 ROLES
01

THE ARCHITECT

The Intent Shaper

Product + Runtime Design
"Writing code is less about constructing solutions, more about creating conditions for good solutions."

Product Thinking meets Runtime Architecture. Defines triggers, allowable skills, and when to use sub-agents vs monoliths. Translates business ambiguity into the clarity agents need – including which tools they can use when.

ARTIFACT: spec.md - Intent + Skill Allowlist
02

THE BUILDER

The Orchestrator

Infrastructure + Orchestration
"You don't just ship code. You ship context strategies."

The shrinking middle – but needs infrastructure. Implements context compaction (forgetting irrelevant history), progressive disclosure (hiding complexity until needed), and sandboxed execution for safe agent code runs. Architects multi-agent systems.

ARTIFACT: runtime.yaml - Context + Sandbox Config
03

THE REVIEWER

The Observer

Tracing & EvalOps
"Old debugging doesn't work anymore. Inspect every decision and every tool call."

System observation with logging traces. Catches when agents hit token limits, misuse tools, or drift from intent. The more output, the more review pressure. Monitors context window exhaustion before it leads to failures.

ARTIFACT: traces.json - Token + Tool Archaeology
04

THE COMPOUNDER

The Skill Builder

Skills + Refinement
"When an agent fails, we don't blame the model. We codify the solution into a skill."

Observes repeated failures ("agent always messes up Jira formatting") and converts them into agent skills – reusable, code-backed capabilities injected into context. Builds your proprietary corporate skill library.

ARTIFACT: skills/ - Corporate Skill Library
Architect 01

INTENT & RUNTIME DESIGN

Define triggers, skill allowlists, and sub-agent boundaries. When should agents delegate? Which tools can they use? Product Thinking meets Runtime Architecture.

Orchestrator 02

CONTEXT ARCHITECTURE

Context compaction and progressive disclosure strategies. Sandboxed Python environments for safe execution. Agents that don't get confused by large files or long conversations – costs down, accuracy up.

Observer 03

TRACE-BASED EVALOPS

Log every decision and every tool call. Catch token limit hits, wrong tool usage, and intent drift. Systems that detect when agents go off the rails – before production notices.

Skill Builder 04

SKILL LIBRARY DEVELOPMENT

Convert repeated failures into reusable agent skills. PDF parsing, Jira formatting, Slack integration – code-backed solutions injected into context. Your proprietary corporate skill library.

TECH DEEP DIVE

The runtime details that make agents reliable:

Agent Skills
Reusable code blocks injected into context to solve recurring problems (PDF parsing, specific formatting, API quirks) that prompts alone can't handle reliably. Your corporate skill library.
Context Compaction
Algorithmic summarization or discarding of old conversation history. Prevents agents from hitting token limits or losing focus. The art of strategic forgetting.
Progressive Disclosure
Hiding complex tools and large files until the agent specifically requests them. Prevents confusion from information overload. Show only what's needed, when it's needed.
Virtual Files
Technique for large datasets: agents read only specific chunks, simulating how humans review documents. Agents don't need the whole file – just the relevant parts.
Sub-Agents
Delegating distinct tasks (research vs. coding vs. review) to specialized agents. Prevents context pollution and hallucinations by keeping each agent focused on one job.
Context Window Exhaustion
When agents run out of memory mid-task. The silent killer of agent reliability. Solved through context compaction and progressive disclosure strategies.
