Apple's M5 Pro and Max chips are tempting, but upgrading hardware before rebuilding your agent platform's control plane just accelerates a brittle system. Here's why we're choosing kernel-first.
The M5 may improve local AI inference, but for agent platforms the smarter move is stabilizing the kernel first, then scaling hardware in phases.
Apple's M5 Pro and M5 Max improve local AI throughput, but better silicon only helps agent platforms with dependable scheduling, observability, and control-plane authority already in place.
Why ESS built a platform kernel before new agents: control plane authority, worker contracts, dead-letter queues, and file-based operations.
A software factory needs platform discipline first. Here's why our AI agent platform rebuild prioritizes one control plane, typed contracts, and production reliability over agent proliferation.
Shallow health checks can hide failing agents. Here's how ESS rebuilt trust with readiness checks, synthetic probes, and one control plane.
The 2026 software factory wave optimizes for code throughput. Our agent platform rebuild optimizes for business workflow reliability. Here's why the distinction matters.
Learn how MCP Tasks decouple long-running agent work from blocking tool calls with polling, subscriptions, state management, and production safeguards.
Learn practical OAuth 2.1 token lifecycle patterns for MCP agent systems, including rotation, delegation, DPoP, and enterprise IdP integration.
