Mechanics Behind Autonomous Systems

Outline

• Autonomy: supervision levels, bounded independence, proactive behavior, trust calibration
• Runtime: events, triggers, jobs, queues, schedules, heartbeats, long-running loops
• State: persistent sessions, checkpoints, resumability, shared state, continuity across runs
• Control: permissions, budgets, approval gates, cancellation, escalation, human intervention
• Observation and Recovery: progress, traces, costs, failures, retries, rollbacks, repairs
