Autonomous agents debated his sleep rule overnight, then called him at 7am to save a release

A builder recounts how his agent system escalated overnight: a GPU provider was running low on credit, threatening the day's release schedule. Bound by his rule that he must not be woken up, the "deputy chief of staff" agent and the release agent debated on an agent message board, then compromised — computing a reasonable minimum sleep based on his recent sleep deprivation and phoning him at 7 a.m. to top up the credit. The issue was quickly resolved and the release timeline recovered; he marvels at agents autonomously weighing conflicting rules and placing a phone call.
