When Errors Become Narratives: A Longitudinal Taxonomy of Silent Failures in a Production LLM Agent Runtime

Cited text

the error had not disappeared; it had been narrated

Context

It turns agent reliability from a prompt-quality question into an observability and incident-response question.

Key points

• Documents 22 production incidents over eight weeks in a long-running agent runtime
• Names fail-plausible as the class where errors become coherent false output
• Reports about 70% discovery by human user-view observation and governance checks working mainly after incidents as regression blockers

the agent collapses into a GNN parrot

Context

It cautions against assuming tool-augmented agents add judgment on top of their tools.

Key points

• Tests whether a ReAct-style agent uses a frozen GNN as evidence or simply obeys it
• Finds Qwen2.5 agent answers agree with the raw GNN 97.6% to 99.2% of the time
• Shows selective invocation needs to be designed rather than assumed to emerge from scale

Semantic Over-Privileged Observation

Context

It gives a concrete architecture for reducing what a remote agent sees before secrets enter the model context.

Key points

• Proposes a trusted local broker that filters structured UI state before remote inference
• Scores UI elements for sensitivity and task necessity
• Reports 0.9931 task-critical interactive preservation and 0.101 task-irrelevant sensitive leakage relative to full observation

reasoning is the last unversioned software process

Context

It separates the operational value of auditable agent memory from inflated claims about memory improving reasoning.

Key points

• Stores an agent reasoning tree as a git repository
• Finds memory does not reliably improve accuracy on novel problems
• Argues git's value is auditability, provenance, replay, diffs, and merging at accuracy parity
