Production-Ready Agents Need Human Interoperability, Not Just Autonomy

The post challenges current agent evaluations that focus solely on task completion, proposing a stricter "production-ready" standard. It argues that agents need legible state, bounded permissions, checkpoints, and recovery paths so humans can understand the current state, correct decisions, and resume from interruptions. A partially completed run that another person can safely inherit is deemed more useful than a fully autonomous demo.
