Autogent Lab // knowledge base

The lab notebook for production agent systems.

Lab collects the technical notes, product lessons, reference architectures, and deployment patterns we use when building agent runtimes and delivering them into real organizations.

01 / Tracks

Runtime architecture

How agent programs execute, recover, coordinate, and expose state.

  • Agent runtime vs. workflow engine
  • Execution models: graph, actor, process
  • Durable state machines for non-deterministic agents
  • Agent-to-agent protocols and failure domains

Memory, scheduling, and cost

The infrastructure work that determines latency, margin, and scale.

  • KV cache as a distributed resource
  • Token-aware scheduling under SLO pressure
  • Context packing for long-running agents
  • Cost observability across model and tool calls

Security and isolation

Boundaries for agents that read files, browse the web, and run code.

  • MicroVM sandboxes for tool use
  • Capability manifests for tool boundaries
  • Prompt injection at the runtime layer
  • Secrets, sessions, and scoped delegation

Product delivery

What we learn from shipping real agent products and enterprise POCs.

  • Research copilots that cite their work
  • Document intelligence with audit trails
  • Human approval loops that users trust
  • From workshop to production handoff

02 / Published notes

03 / Reference architectures

Research copilot

Browser sandbox, source capture, citation graph, reviewer queue, and trace replay for long research tasks.

Regulated document workflow

Private retrieval, structured extraction, reviewer checkpoints, policy constraints, and immutable audit logs.

On-prem agent runtime

Model gateway, tool broker, microVM pool, workflow engine, observability plane, and operator console.

Consumer agent product

Session memory, eval harness, growth instrumentation, cost scheduler, and human-in-the-loop recovery.
