  • Walks through the six-layer agent infrastructure stack currently under development.
  • Argues the shift to agent-first primitives is comparable in scale to the cloud migration.
  • Key insight: different layers are maturing at wildly different speeds, and the orchestration layer enterprise deployments need is largely missing.
  • Warns that teams prioritising shipping speed over stack literacy will hit reliability failures as transitional lock-in and agent sprawl compound through 2026.
  • Practical takeaway: invest in foundational stack understanding now rather than patching later.
