Agent frameworks ship faster than the rigor operators need to run them. Vendor docs promise orchestration, memory, and tool use; academic benchmarks and production post-mortems keep exposing the same structural gaps: diversity collapse in multi-agent ideation, hallucination amplification across consensus topologies, missing per-step rationale traces, role-based retry losing to graph-state failure isolation on long tasks, and configuration surfaces that punish static templates. This beat covers that delta.

The second through-line is governance and trust. Skill registries, tool-use protocols, and capability manifests are accumulating faster than auditable contracts for them. Trust schemas, contractual skill specs, and information-flow controls are arriving as bolt-ons rather than primitives, while the infrastructure layer — sandbox execution, private networking, agent memory — keeps absorbing functionality the framework layer used to own. The question of where the agent stack actually lives, and who is liable when it misbehaves, stays unresolved.

Coverage is comparative and opinionated. When a benchmark or paper exposes a gap that a major framework cannot close without redesign, that gets named. When a vendor ships governance theater rather than enforcement, that gets named too. The goal is help readers pick stacks that survive contact with production, not a taxonomy of every framework release.
