Before that point, prompt tuning is usually just movement on the easiest visible surface rather than progress on the system that actually carries the work.</p><p>Thanks for reading Rooted Layers!

Operating Agents V: Trust Boundaries and Agent Safety

Reliable agents do not come from stacking more visible capability on top of a strong model. They come from explicit operating layers a reviewer can still inspect when something breaks: action surfaces, memory policy, reasoning scaffolds, role boundaries, trust boundaries, and evaluation loops. Once a workflow can touch tools, durable state, approvals, or untrusted content, the architecture below the model decides whether the system is dependable.</p><p>Safety closes the core run because every capability above widens the attack surface. Once content, tools, and internal artifacts can move across the workflow, trust separation stops being a prompt preference and becomes a systems requirement.</p><p>Thanks for reading Rooted Layers!
