In the past year, the enterprise AI ecosystem has gained enormous capability and zero consensus. Developers now have a remarkable set of tools for building AI agents: OpenAI’s frameworks, Anthropic’s Claude tooling, LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, Microsoft AutoGen, and a growing list of alternatives. Each promises to coordinate reasoning loops, manage multi-step task execution, and connect agents to tools and APIs. For experimentation, the progress has been substantial. Teams can now assemble sophisticated agent workflows in days that would have taken months two years ago. But I’ve watched this pattern before. In over two decades of building and selling distributed systems platforms, I’ve seen the same dynamic play out across nearly every major infrastructure shift: the tools for consuming a new capability arrive before the infrastructure for governing it does. The gap that emerges isn’t immediately obvious in development environments. It becomes obvious in production. That’s exactly wh
