Runtime Feedback Guides
Long-form guides on shipping AI-generated code you can trust: the case for a runtime feedback loop, the wiring to build one, and the new failure classes that make it non-optional. Written for the people doing the work, refreshed as the data changes.
How to Trust What Your Agents Ship
Why AI-generated code fails in production after passing every pre-deploy gate, what your runtime platforms can’t tell you, and the four-stage architecture (distill, enrich, explain, remember) that closes the runtime feedback loop. Grounded in the 2026 survey data on the AI code trust wall.

Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and Copilot all close the loop from prompt to commit; none can see what the code did after deploy. What runtime context an agent actually needs, how to wire it in through MCP, and the verified-ship workflow that replaces deploy-and-hope.

LLM APIs fail in ways that return HTTP 200: silent content filters, body-level refusals, mid-stream 529s, plus moderation verdicts dressed as validation errors. The full taxonomy, a signature table covering every error string, and the observability posture that catches what status codes can’t.
