Technical Essay
Stop Prompting Agents. Start Managing Workers.
Agent workers become dependable only when organizations stop treating them as intelligent prompt boxes and start managing their work through explicit roles, encoded procedures, bounded authority, evidence, measurement, and earned autonomy.
A public-safe technical essay arguing that when agent execution becomes abundant, human specification, supervision, validation, integration, memory, and closure become the limiting resources.

Agentic AIHuman AttentionContext As CodeRepository Governance
I Was Summoning Ghosts Until I Learned to Build the Machine
A personal technical narrative about moving from ephemeral prompt-built capability to governed context, versioned intent, bounded agent work, and durable human authority.
Your architecture diagram shows what the system can reach. It usually does not show what the system should trust, who has authority, how contradictions are resolved, what may be changed, or how far the consequences can spread.
Nine Complete Enterprise Sites, One AI Prototyping Lab
Nine complete enterprise service-site prototypes are preserved inside one interactive SharePlane artifact, with architecture, repository mechanics, role boundaries, management rationale, SharePoint comparison, and exact source identities.
Published
AI PrototypingEnterprise Web ExperienceContext As CodeAgent Readable Web
A SharePlane article defining work evaporation as the loss of recoverable context around AI-assisted work and presenting a governed continuity system that extracts decisions, binds evidence, records provenance, and makes work reusable beyond the originating session.
Published
AI Assisted WorkKnowledge ContinuityContext As CodeProvenance
Rapid AI-assisted prototyping should become visible to development teams early, while active engineering collaboration should occur through stable, reproducible checkpoints rather than against a continuously changing experimental branch.
Published
AI Assisted DevelopmentEngineering GovernanceProduct PrototypingSoftware Delivery
A management-systems argument that deliberate knowledge dependency is not job security. Durable value comes from transferable capability, resilient services, and moving on to harder problems.
A personal systems essay on how AI removed the implementation barrier between decades of infrastructure, operational, user, and visual judgment and the software experiences Tony Malott wanted to build.
Published
AI Assisted DevelopmentSystems ThinkingCareer ArcUser Experience
A personal systems essay arguing that America removed routine movement from ordinary life, made excess consumption unusually easy, and then interpreted a population-scale outcome mainly as an individual failure of discipline.
Published
Systems ThinkingPublic HealthBuilt EnvironmentFood Systems
SharePlane is a static publishing library and a governed context-as-code operating model. This artifact explains how versioned authority, human judgment, bounded agents, deterministic generation, validation, receipts, and exact-head publication turn rough ideas into durable public work.
Published
AI GovernanceArchitectureContext As CodeMulti Agent Systems
A systems-engineering thesis on why AI is making ordinary application implementation increasingly replaceable while product intent, data, contracts, provenance, and validation become the durable assets.
Published
Enterprise ArchitectureSource AuthorityContext As CodeStrategy
Public-source security essay arguing that modern software supply-chain compromise now propagates through developer workflow trust, not only bad packages.
Published
AI GovernanceGoverned AIPlatform EngineeringSource Authority
Article-first SharePlane thesis defining demo debt as the liability created when impressive AI demos are mistaken for supportable operational capability.
The AI Underclass Will Be Built With Access Controls
Article-first public-safe editorial op-ed on frontier AI access controls, strategic infrastructure, and the risk of metered or delayed access to advanced models.
Article-first SharePlane op-ed arguing that AI makes high-context internal judgment more valuable, so enterprises should outsource capacity rather than the cognitive center of the business.
A long-form SharePlane article arguing that AI makes clear thinking the control plane because apparent success is cheap, verified success is expensive, and autonomy must be earned through intent, evals, evidence, and constraint.

AI GovernanceGoverned AIModel EvaluationMulti Agent Systems
A premium source-derived strategy artifact explaining why cheap AI execution commoditizes known work and moves advantage toward frontier scouting, better questions, verification, and workflow redesign.
