The introduction defines the book promise: practical agentic system patterns, clear ownership boundaries, and release-quality evidence.
Abrir secciónArchitecture Before Autonomy explains why ownership, policy, state, evals, and rollback should come before adding agentic behavior.
Abrir secciónA single agent receives a goal or message, consults its context, and produces an answer or action. This is the smallest useful unit in the catalog.
Abrir secciónThe lifecycle chapter turns agent work into an engineering process: design, harness, eval, trace, review, rollout, and maintenance.
Abrir secciónEvaluation-Driven Agent Development shows how to make evals part of design, implementation, release, and incident learning.
Abrir secciónPlanning separates deciding what to do from doing it. The planner creates steps; the executor runs them, reports progress, and handles errors.
Abrir secciónContext Budgets and Working Sets explains how to select, label, compress, retrieve, and drop context before it becomes hidden risk.
Abrir secciónSkills package procedural knowledge as discoverable, versioned folders of instructions, references, scripts, templates, assets, and tests.
Abrir secciónChoosing Multi-Agent Topology helps decide when to use supervisors, delegation, parallel agents, consensus, or simpler single-agent designs.
Abrir secciónAgentic System Architecture maps how loops, tools, memory, policy, evals, runtime, and product services fit into one system.
Abrir secciónProduction Runtime Overview defines the control plane that admits work, validates proposals, owns state, enforces policy, and records evidence.
Abrir secciónThe lab guide explains how to use runnable examples to connect patterns to code, tests, traces, and production gaps.
Abrir secciónCapstone Projects combine multiple patterns into reviewable system packets with traces, evals, ADRs, runbooks, and rollout controls.
Abrir secciónHistorical Patterns translates older agent terminology into clearer current architecture language and explains why some terms were retired.
Abrir secciónPublishing and Releases documents how to build, verify, package, and publish the online book and courtesy formats.
