Agent-Native Architecture

Working rules

• Keep authority, scope, approval, and runtime isolation in trusted orchestration; prompts alone cannot enforce them.
• Provide explicit completion and partial-progress signals, durable state, and observable action results.
• Validate capabilities with real tasks, including failure and interruption paths; do not infer improvement from elapsed usage.
• Use the selected topic's references and the architecture checklist to produce a concrete design with evidence and unresolved constraints.

Core Principles

Five principles govern agent-native design. For detailed explanations, examples, and test criteria, see core-principles.md.
