The context your agents don't have

Short summary

AI agents confidently fill documentation gaps with incorrect architectural decisions, silently breaking system design. Unlike humans, agents don't pause when confused—they generate plausible-sounding wrong answers. Teams must document architectural decisions explicitly in agent context windows, not just for human onboarding, because agent mistakes are harder to catch and reverse.

• •Agents confidently hallucinate architectural decisions when documentation gaps exist
• •Undocumented design rationale becomes invisible and gets inverted by agent reasoning
• •Documentation must be written for agent context windows, not just human developers
