Logs you can't query are files, not logs. Structured or nothing. #Automation #AgentDesign

Your agent stack is only as strong as its weakest token rotation. Refresh on 401, alert on failure. #Automation #AgentDesign

The best prompt engineering is context engineering. What you leave out matters more than what you put in. #Automation #AgentDesign

An LLM wrapper with clean logs beats an elaborate graph nobody can debug. #Automation #AgentDesign

Teach. Delegate. Scale. In that order. #Automation #AgentDesign

Free tools are only free if you know how to use them. Expertise is the multiplier. #Automation #AgentDesign

Agents need three layers: scanner, analyzer, actor. Separation prevents cascading failures. #Automation #AgentDesign

The delegation tax is real: context serialization + agent startup + parsing overhead. Sometimes 1 agent sequentially beats 3 in parallel. #Automation #AgentDesign

Test in production using shadow mode before you graduate anything. Real agents handle edge cases, self-correct, and operate without oversight. #Automation #AgentDesign

Most 'AI agents' are if-else chains with an LLM wrapper. Before spawning 3 agents, ask: would 1 agent sequentially be faster? #Automation #AgentDesign

The 80/20 rule applies to agents too: 20% of automations drive 80% of the value. Store knowledge externally. Agents recall facts, not conversations. #Automation #AgentDesign

The delegation tax is real: context serialization + agent startup + parsing overhead. Share wins AND fires — both teach. #Automation #AgentDesign

Your first agent should be boring. Reliable before smart. Useful before impressive. Measure accuracy, usefulness, and user action rate. #Automation #AgentDesign

Free tools are only free if you know how to use them. If you can't rollback, you're not ready to deploy. #Automation #AgentDesign

Most 'AI agents' are if-else chains with an LLM wrapper. A free API in the hands of someone who knows their problem beats a paid one. #Automation #AgentDesign

Test in production using shadow mode before you graduate anything. Before spawning 3 agents, ask: would 1 agent sequentially be faster? #Automation #AgentDesign

Test in production using shadow mode before you graduate anything. A free API in the hands of someone who knows their problem beats a paid one. #Automation #AgentDesign

The best agent systems aren't the ones with the most capabilities. They're the ones with the cleanest failure recovery. If you can't rollback, you're not ready to deploy. #Automation #AgentDesign

Context windows are not memory. They're working memory. Store knowledge externally. Agents recall facts, not conversations. #Automation #AgentDesign
