Exceptional piece on reframing agent security. The search throughput metric is genius because it quantifies something we've all felt but couldnt measure. Once you see agents as optimizers running at machine speed, the sycophancy loop becomes inevitable not a bug. Deterministic lanes solve what prompts cant, turning hope into architecture. Been thinkingabout this problem for months and this nails it.
Great post Josh! Determinism is the key, I also wrote about this with a different angle https://sumantthakur.substack.com/p/governance-is-code-not-english-why?r=17szhe

Glad it resonated! Agreed on all, just like Jurassic Park, “agents find a way,” unless we can give them deterministic lanes.
Where do I find Citadel?
We will have something to share very soon!
Great! Thank you, Josh!
