   > About 20 Markdown files described browser use, connectors, payments, credentials, data handling, generated files, voice, goals, and scheduling.

   This the state of software engineering in 2026.

   Edit: clarified engineering to software engineering, which is more correct

      To be fair there's probably a considerable amount of engineering that went into evaluating those markdown files so the agent behaviour is statistically reliable. The markdown is the product, not the process

         Markdown can never guarantee deterministic agent operations. It is an influence on inference, not a deterministic code path. How "statistically reliable" is it?

            you use evals to measure nondeterministic behavior and abstract deterministic behavior behind tools
