Deep technical writing on AI agents in production, LLM infrastructure, observability, and reliability. No fluff — only what we have learned building the runtime.
Every major LLM provider goes down — Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, all of them. If your agent is hardcoded to one model, every incident is your incident. Here is how fallback chains, circuit breakers, and latency-based routing keep agents running regardless.
Most teams get their agent working in a Claude Code session in an afternoon. Then it hits production and breaks silently, expensively, in ways nobody anticipated. Eight failure modes, eight fixes — including agentic loops, prompt injection, and context blowout.
