What configuration is necessary for maximum productivity?
Balance rigid, observable machinery with flexible agents that can adapt without requiring a new service for every role.
Starting point
There is an enduring tension between “just let agents do everything” and a rigid structure with agents doing highly focused jobs. I lean toward structure, but structure produces code and operational surface area while agents remain flexible.
What to track
- Which guarantees are valuable enough to encode in software.
- Which decisions are safer when left to an agent with context.
- How much configuration improves repeatability before it becomes friction.
Living record
Major configuration choices and the evidence behind them belong here.
