What Is Prompt Injection?

Prompt injection is when untrusted text reaching a model's context gets treated as instruction rather than data. It has held OWASP's number one LLM risk slot across every edition, and agents made it materially worse.

How to Estimate the Cost of an AI Feature

AI features have a cost structure traditional software does not: it scales with usage, varies per request, and is set by design decisions made months earlier. A method for estimating before you build.

Small Language Models vs Frontier Models: A Cost Framework

Serving a 7B model is roughly 10-30x cheaper than a frontier model for tasks where accuracy is equivalent. The engineering question is which tasks those are, and how to find out without guessing.

What Is an AI Memory Layer?

Chat history is not memory. A memory layer is durable, retrievable state about decisions, preferences and facts that survives past the context window. What belongs in one, and what should stay in a log.

RAG in 2026: When You Still Need It, When You Don't

Long context windows and better tool use took work away from retrieval-augmented generation. RAG did not become obsolete — its job got narrower. A decision framework for when to retrieve, when to load, and when to call a tool.

Context Engineering vs Prompt Engineering: What Changed

Prompt wording stopped being the bottleneck around 2025. The harder problem — deciding what lands in the context window at every turn — got a name. What context engineering is, and the four things it covers.

Agent Observability: What to Trace, What to Score

Traditional observability tells you an agent responded. It does not tell you whether the response was correct. What to instrument for agentic systems, and how tracing and evaluation fit together.

Structured Outputs: Getting Reliable JSON from LLMs

Asking a model politely for JSON produces JSON most of the time, and most of the time is not a contract. How constrained decoding, schemas and validation combine into something you can build on.

How to Evaluate an AI Agent Before It Reaches Production

Benchmarks say your agent works; production says otherwise. A practical evaluation approach covering end-to-end, trajectory and component scoring, and how to build an eval suite from your own failures.

Multi-Agent Orchestration: When One Agent Beats Many

Multi-agent architectures are the default recommendation of 2026 and the wrong answer for most teams. A decision framework for choosing between one agent, a planner-executor split, and a full orchestration graph.
