How Much Context Does an AI Agent Really Need?
Unified production context makes AI agents cheaper, faster, and easier to scale. In our live benchmark, resolving relationships before inference cut model-token usage by 83.5%, while reducing response time and estimated cost without changing the task outcome.
AI Context for Prod, Optimized by AIs in Prod
Annie (our AI SRE agent) had institutional memory from ACE, the agentic context-engineering loop that curates cheatsheets from past runs. It worked, but clients kept catching her trusting stale entries or missing answers buried in her own bloated context. So we added five things on top: (1) a fixed set of memory items always presented to the agent, (2) per-query retrieval over the rest of the memory store, (3) an agent-optimized index of that store, (4) the ability for the agent to query the store mid-run, and (5) tried-and-true memory freshness mechanisms. Production context, now optimized by the AI using it. Here's the reasoning and what a few weeks in production say.
How we turned on-call judgment into skills an AI agent can load
An AI agent in the incident channel can run kubectl and read a dashboard. What it can't do is judge whether the last deploy is the suspect or a red herring. We open-sourced the SRE skills that encode that judgment, runnable offline against fixtures with no credentials.
Private Equity's AI Transition Problem in 2026
Private equity firms are pushing AI across portfolios, but the hard part is no longer experimentation. It is turning sponsor-level AI pressure into governed, production-aware operating workflows that actually move EBITDA.
Top 10 AI SRE Tools in 2026: A Comprehensive Comparison
The 10 best AI SRE tools in 2026 compared by architecture, root cause analysis, remediation, and change awareness — from Anyshift's versioned graph to Resolve AI's autonomous agents.
Agentic Context Engineering in Production: How AI Agents Build Institutional Expertise
AI agents start every run from scratch. ACE (Agentic Context Engineering) gives them institutional memory that evolves through use, cutting root cause analysis time by 30%.
Why AI-SRE Needs Topology, Not Just Telemetry
The limits of telemetry-only AI approaches to SRE and why topology is the missing piece.
Navigating AI in your Infrastructure: Dos, Don'ts, and Why It Matters
GenAI is everywhere. But very often, the cool and exciting demos don't work the same way in production.
