andreisavu · x · 2026-08-01
The author shares an engineering insight on building AI agents, emphasizing the critical role of evaluations. They point out that in complex workflows, having an agent dedicated to debugging other agents is just as important. The author calls for infrastructure providing storage with an agent-friendly query API for traces, arguing that with this foundation in place, they can figure out the rest of the engineering challenges.
