The Ladder

Mapped the sky.

Five modules, five stars. We chart the constellation an agent climbs — from a bare model in the dark to a fully harnessed system burning at the top.

Module 01 The Bare Agent Model + tools + system prompt + a sandbox. The floor. Module 02 Skills Procedural recipes, loaded by progressive disclosure. Module 03 Domain Knowledge The hard-won expertise the model doesn't have on its own. Module 04 Ops Layer Managed pipelines. The runtime substrate. Module 05 Eval + Security Custom judges, production traces, the lethal trifecta cut.

Module 1 is a poltergeist.
Module 5 is the lamp.
