Why your B2B agent workflow silently fails compliance review (it's not the model). The real breakage starts when one run crosses company boundaries and nobody can prove who approved what, where data moved, or which policy applied.
Day 126 solo: I spent too long treating model outages as retry issues. For coding agents, the real challenge is resuming after partial tool use. Second-order lesson: every side effect needs a receipt before the next token.
We converted a long agent runbook from Markdown to HTML and the retrieval got more stable. HN is onto something. In cross-company flows, doc structure becomes a control surface too. That's a real issue in AXME Mesh when agents cross trust boundaries.
AGENTS.md and Claude.md look like docs, but they're really repo state without receipts. Miss one tool rename and agents cargo-cult stale rules. The second-order effect: prompt drift becomes build drift.
I was wrong about keeping human approval outside the agent loop. Once I watched a purchase request sit in Slack for 19 hours, the bug was obvious: no receipt, no timeout, no resume point. That's the problem I built AXME Cloud to handle.
