Your agent works in the demo. Now make it safe enough to put money — and a regulator — behind.
When a wrong answer is an awkward email, "usually works" is fine. When it is money that does not come back, a limit breached, a regulator's question, "usually works" is a liability with good demos. This book engineers the difference. Its running system is Harbor Credit — an agent that extends trade credit to a small business's wholesale buyers — and across ten chapters it wraps that agent in the full assurance pipeline that turns an impressive prototype into a system you can certify.
Through ten chapters, each moving from a reproduced failure to tested code, you will build:
The governing idea, held for ten chapters: put the LLM at the boundary and the invariants in the core, so safety holds regardless of model quality — perfect, degraded, or jailbroken. Each chapter adds a research lineage (FMEA and fault trees to reference monitors, QuickCheck to the safety case), a failure catalog, and exercises. The companion repo has one dependency, thirty-three tests, and runs entirely offline.
Who it's for: senior engineers, and anyone deploying agents in high-stakes or regulated domains, who have built and dissected an agent (Books 2–3 or equivalent).
The AI Agent Series takes readers from first contact to professional mastery across seven volumes. This is Book 5: trust, engineered.
