The Engineering of Intent, Chapter 27: Anti-Patterns — What Not to Do

Chapter 27 of The Engineering of Intent blog series. Twenty-five named anti-patterns — the tempting shortcuts that look like speed and cost you the quarter. A teaser on ten of the worst, including Let-the-Agent-Decide, Rewrite-From-Scratch, Forever Pilot, and the Plan-Free Zone that pairs with One-Prompt-Solves-Everything to wreck AI-native rollouts.

The Engineering of Intent, Chapter 14: The 30-Day Pilot Framework

Chapter 14 of The Engineering of Intent blog series. Every successful AI-native transformation starts as a thirty-day pilot on a single well-scoped project. A teaser on how to scope the first project, the week-by-week playbook, the five-question graduation rubric, and the three pilots that show what works and what doesn't.

The Engineering of Intent, Chapter 6: Autonomous Orchestration Frameworks

Chapter 6 of The Engineering of Intent blog series. Editors run one agent at a time; orchestration runs many. A teaser on task-specific personalities, memory banks, when to orchestrate (and when not), the 14,000-test case study, and the economics of multi-agent pipelines.
