Getting agents past the change board
What it takes to move agentic AI from demo to production in a regulated enterprise: guardrails, literacy programmes, and the reference implementations that make teams trust it.
Speaking
I run agentic AI literacy sessions for engineering teams at work, and I'm now taking these topics to meetups and conferences. Each one can be a 20-minute talk or a hands-on workshop.
Your test suite was the first agent harness
Ten years of BDD and test automation taught the same lesson agents need now: put deterministic checks around the part you don't trust.
Cheap judgments, expensive builders
Splitting work between a frontier model that writes the code once and a small model that makes thousands of decisions, with real cost numbers from tidy.
