A 12-layer engineering stack for production AI agents, from business to continual learning
MaryamMiradi · x · 2026-10-22
A 20-year AI veteran who claims 400+ production agents lays out a 12-layer stack, illustrated with a medical emergency agent: business/data/knowledge engineering, then model, context, semantic and agent engineering, then loop/evaluation/harness layers for reliability, and infrastructure plus continual learning to operate. Knowing why each layer exists lets you swap models and frameworks without breaking the architecture.
