It needs a protocol-native lifecycle layer for intent, drift, confirmation boundaries, evidence chains, agent handoffs, and accepted outcomes across system boundaries.Tue, 09 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.jearonwong.com/essays/mcp-connects-tools-a2a-connects-agents-who-governs-the-lifecycle/https://www.jearonwong.com/essays/mcp-connects-tools-a2a-connects-agents-who-governs-the-lifecycle/Production AI agents need a vendor-neutral lifecycle governance layer above tool access and agent coordination.Sun, 26 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.jearonwong.com/essays/from-static-logs-to-dynamic-evidence-chains-auditability-era-agentic-ai/https://www.jearonwong.com/essays/from-static-logs-to-dynamic-evidence-chains-auditability-era-agentic-ai/Jearon Wong argues that Agentic AI auditability requires a shift from static logs to dynamic, responsibility-linked lifecycle evidence chains.Thu, 04 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.jearonwong.com/essays/the-industry-is-still-debating-ai-agent-governance-mplp-lifecycle-answer/https://www.jearonwong.com/essays/the-industry-is-still-debating-ai-agent-governance-mplp-lifecycle-answer/The industry keeps debating AI agent governance as fragmentation, audit gaps, runtime drift, weak HITL accountability, and uninsurable agentic risk. MPLP defines the missing lifecycle governance layer behind them.Sun, 24 May 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.jearonwong.com/essays/defining-intent-drift-in-agentic-workflows/https://www.jearonwong.com/essays/defining-intent-drift-in-agentic-workflows/Agentic systems do not only fail when models hallucinate. They fail when intent degrades across human input, model interpretation, and long-running execution. This essay defines Intent Drift, Delta Intent, and Drift Detection as the minimum defense.Thu, 21 May 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.jearonwong.com/essays/from-model-governance-to-agentic-lifecycle-conformance/https://www.jearonwong.com/essays/from-model-governance-to-agentic-lifecycle-conformance/Jearon Wong explains how studying EU AI Act, GDPR, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, Singapore governance work, W3C provenance standards, and Colorado AI Act led from traditional compliance coverage to Missing Regulatory Objects, RCCS-M, and ALCS.Wed, 13 May 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.jearonwong.com/essays/agent-orchestration-is-not-delivery/https://www.jearonwong.com/essays/agent-orchestration-is-not-delivery/The third essay in the Define The AI Agent Lifecycle series. Jearon Wong argues that agent orchestration coordinates execution but does not define delivery: in the AI Agent Lifecycle, the orchestrator must become the consensus layer that turns human intent into verifiable responsibility and accepted project delivery.Mon, 04 May 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.jearonwong.com/essays/the-industry-misdefined-multi-agent-ai/https://www.jearonwong.com/essays/the-industry-misdefined-multi-agent-ai/The second essay in Define The AI Agent Lifecycle. Jearon Wong argues that MAS should be defined by lifecycle responsibility separation, lifecycle-governed workflows, Agent Lifecycle Protocol, and accountable delivery.Fri, 01 May 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.jearonwong.com/essays/ai-agent-lifecycle-it-was-not-designed-it-grew/https://www.jearonwong.com/essays/ai-agent-lifecycle-it-was-not-designed-it-grew/The first essay in Define The AI Agent Lifecycle. A personal engineering origin story of how prompt failure, context drift, intent drift, and multi-agent coordination exposed the need for AI Agent Lifecycle.Wed, 29 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMThttps://www.jearonwong.com/essays/agentic-ai-inflection-point-project-delivery/https://www.jearonwong.com/essays/agentic-ai-inflection-point-project-delivery/Agentic AI is moving from task execution to project delivery, where real work must be carried from human intent to accepted outcome.Mon, 27 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT
