Agent context needs boundaries and invitations

jun 03 2026 what things mean

Agent context needs boundaries and invitations.

The invitation says:

Here is what you can inspect.

Read the notes.

Follow the source trails.

Look at the current lens.

Notice the recurring questions.

Use the public graph to start a better conversation.

The boundary says:

Do not pretend this is the whole person.

Do not infer private context that is not here.

Do not treat provisional notes as doctrine.

Do not flatten old writing into current belief.

Both parts matter.

Without the invitation, the agent does not know where to look.

Without the boundary, the agent may overreach.

Good context has both.

undertext

Every page here carries a machine-readable layer underneath: the sources, dates, confidence levels, and connections behind what you just read. I call it undertext. If you read with an agent, give it this page's undertext:
