Not just data. APIs tell it what it can ask for. Events tell it what changed. Tools let it act. State tells it where things are. History tells it how they got there. The layer connecting all of that is the Context Layer. https://theagenticarch.com/posts/agents-need-a-context-layer/01 Oct 2026 12:15 +0000at://did:plc:ks7ovjaraozfbsbkdotud3vd/app.bsky.feed.post/3mwstjhem7726https://bsky.app/profile/hguerreroo.bsky.social/post/3mwnslj7b2l2xEnterprise integration was built around moving data between applications.

But what if the problem isn't the model? Agents need APIs, events, tools, context, identity, state and observability to actually do useful work. Your agents don't need better models. They need better plumbing. https://theagenticarch.com/posts/agents-need-better-plumbing/23 Sep 2026 14:08 +0000at://did:plc:ks7ovjaraozfbsbkdotud3vd/app.bsky.feed.post/3mw6w3kz7nh2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/hguerreroo.bsky.social/post/3mvsdqvcxh32gAI cost dashboards are rear-view mirrors. A runaway agent can burn through a budget before an alert fires. Reserve budget before each model call, then settle on actual usage.
