What the agentic CX platform wave is actually building
Adobe, UJET, and NICE all launched agentic CX platforms in H1 2026. They converged on four infrastructure layers. That convergence tells you exactly what your own CX agents need to work in production.
Five things your CX agent needs that its framework won't provide
LLM frameworks handle conversations. They don't handle memory, tool reliability, pre-production testing, or observability. Here's what every production CX agent actually needs.
The MCP registry: managing a fleet of agent tools
When you have more than 3 MCP servers, you need a registry. Here's the architecture Pinterest and Cloudflare use to manage fleets of domain-specific tool servers at scale.
How to Migrate Your MCP Server to Stateless Mode
The MCP 2026 release candidate makes stateless the recommended default. Your MCP server can now scale behind any load balancer without sticky routing. Here's how to migrate and use the new Tasks extension for async CX work.
AWS just gave your agent 15,000 cloud tools
The AWS MCP Server is now GA. One tool call reaches any of 15,000+ AWS APIs, sandboxed Python execution lets agents run multi-step operations, and Agent Skills replace heavyweight SOPs with on-demand guidance. Here's what changed and how to wire it.
Reasoning Tokens Are Showing Up on the Bill
GPT-5 and Claude thinking tokens bill as output and stay invisible. A 200-token reply can hide 8,000 billable ones. How to measure, cap, and budget.
MCP Servers in Production: Observability from Day One
Instrument your MCP servers with OpenTelemetry for production-grade observability. Covers tracing tool calls, detecting loops, cost attribution, and alerting.
74% of Production Agents Still Rely on Human Evaluation
A survey of 306 practitioners reveals most production agents are far simpler than expected. The eval gap isn't a tooling problem. It's a trust problem.
What to Trace When Your AI Agent Hits Production
OpenTelemetry GenAI conventions are the production standard for agent tracing. What to instrument, what to skip, and what breaks — from a 2 AM debugging war story.
Your AI Agent Costs $13K/Month. Here's the Fix.
A production customer-service agent burned $13,247 in one month. Prompt caching, model routing, batch processing, and plan-and-execute architecture cut it to $1,100. Real pricing math for every technique.
Why Browser Agents Waste 89% of Their Tokens
Browser agents burn 1,500-2,000 tokens per screenshot. Chrome 146's navigator.modelContext API lets websites expose structured tools instead, cutting token usage by 89% and raising task accuracy to 98%. Here's how WebMCP works.
AI Agent Observability: What to Monitor When Your Agent Goes Live
Build a production observability pipeline for AI agents. Covers latency, token usage, tool success rates, conversation quality, drift detection, structured logging, alerting strategies, and the critical difference between LLM and agent observability.
AI Agent Testing: How to Evaluate Agents Before They Talk to Customers
A practical guide to testing AI agents before production — scenario-based testing with AI personas, scorecard evaluation, regression suites, edge case generation, and CI/CD integration.
AI Agent Tools: MCP, OpenAPI, and Tool Management That Actually Scales
How production AI agents discover, execute, and manage tools — from MCP protocol to OpenAPI auto-importing, security sandboxing, and multi-tenant tool infrastructure.
MCP Deep Dive: Advanced Patterns for Agent Tool Integration
Production MCP patterns for teams who've built their first server and need to scale it — OAuth 2.1 with PKCE, Streamable HTTP transport, gateways, sampling, dynamic tool registration, and multi-tenant security.
Multimodal AI Agents: Voice, Vision, and Text in Production
How to architect multimodal AI agents that process voice, vision, and text simultaneously — from STT→LLM→TTS pipelines to vision integration, latency budgets, and production fusion strategies.
How Multimodal Voice AI Works: From Audio-Only to Vision-Aware Agents
How multimodal voice AI combines speech, vision, and text into a single agent — architecture patterns, latency tradeoffs, and TypeScript code you can run.
