Takeaway
Takeaway An Agent's core capability comes from the LLM, but its reliability comes from engineering guardrails. These 5 defenses determine whether your Agent is merely "usable" or truly "production-ready": iteration cap prevents infinite loops; output truncation prevents context overflow; timeout control prevents hanging; interrupt recovery prevents corruption; context emergency prevents total crash.
