Retries Needed Delegation Identity
A 147-incident study says service-mesh retry and breaker assumptions fail on mutating agent work.
Summary
A 147-incident study says service-mesh retry and breaker assumptions fail on mutating agent work.
The authors trace failures to inadequate identity and evidence, including accumulated effects across repeated invocations and enforcement that blocked correct work. They derive seven delegation-level reliability primitives but explicitly stop short of a controlled evaluation.
Why it matters
A 147-incident study says service-mesh retry and breaker assumptions fail on mutating agent work.
