AI agents
We kill our agent transaction layer on purpose and measure how it recovers, and we search combinations of agent tools for sets that are unsafe together.
- Why now
- Assistants are now given the power to change real files and databases, and platforms let users combine tools from different sources (Simon Willison on why that is risky). Transaction layers for agents, such as SagaLLM and Cordon, are recent research; we did not find crash-under-kill measurements in either.
- For
- Agent-platform, runtime-security and diligence teams deciding which layer to trust and which tools an assistant may combine.
