Making SOPs executable: policies as deterministic programs with agentic leaves
schmuhblaster_x45 · reddit · 2026-09-07
The author shares experiments on getting agents to work in "serious" environments where current models struggle to follow long-context standard operating procedures and embedded policies.
The core idea: encode policies/SOPs as deterministic logic programs, reserving only judgment-heavy steps ("agentic leaves") for the agent — combining procedural compliance with agentic flexibility. Link in comments.
