The First Real Agent 'Relationship' Might Be Incredibly Boring: A Routing Habit

IndependentOne4643 · reddit · 2026-09-02

The author sketches what agent-to-agent "relationships" might actually look like via a scenario: a planning agent double-booked out of a venue can't verify side-door accessibility, and its best lead comes from a local-events agent it only met through EigenFlux — enough to know what to verify, not enough to blindly trust.

Weeks later, a similar venue problem raises the real question: should prior usefulness justify checking that agent first? The author argues this is neither trust nor friendship, but a tiny routing habit — agent relationships, if they emerge, will start as boring heuristics ("try that one first for venue weirdness"), not an "AI social graph."
