Established 2026 · Vol. I, No. 1 The Field Manual for People Who Build Agents APR 08, 2026

My agents are live. Now I need them to not break and to make money.

Observability, evaluations, cost control, and client scoping for production agent systems that actually pay rent.

What you walk away with
Article 01 Stop your OpenAI bill from spiraling. Cost controls that actually hold.
Article 02 Evals and observability built the way ops teams need them — not researchers.
Article 03 Repeatable client delivery, scoping frameworks, and SOPs you can hand to a hire.
Who this is for
Title / role Team lead, agency owner, head of automation, fractional CTO, senior engineer, ops director, or AI consultant.
Tools you already use OpenAI/Anthropic APIs, LangChain or LangGraph, n8n self-hosted, Cloudflare Workers, Supabase, Postgres, Stripe, Helicone, LangSmith, Notion, Linear.
Pain points Cost spirals out of control. Hallucinations break client trust. No observability and no eval framework. Can’t price or scope client work confidently. Hiring or training other people to build agents.
Trigger moment OpenAI bill blew up. A client churned because an agent broke. You’re trying to hire a second builder and realizing you have no SOPs. You just signed a bigger client and you’re scared.

Questions & honest answers
Who is this for?

Team leads, ops managers, and agency owners who already shipped agents and now need them to behave like real production systems. If you haven’t shipped one yet, start with Builder.

How long is the cohort?

Operator Bootcamp is 4 weeks — one 90-minute live session per week. The Operator Cohort listed in the ladder is a live 6–8 week cohort. Operator Playbook is self-paced.

What if I miss a session?

Every session is recorded. Standard tier gets recordings and the cohort channel. Premium and VIP tiers add weekly office hours and 1:1 coaching for makeup support.

Is there a certificate?

Yes. Graduates earn the “Certified Agent Operations Practitioner” credential after completing all 4 sessions, shipping a supervisor + Completion Cards, shipping cost caps + retry + DLQ, and submitting a published AOS one-pager.

What will I actually walk out with?

A Fleet Registry covering every agent in your org. A supervisor wrapper with Completion Cards on at least one production agent. Cost caps, typed retries, and dead-letter recovery on the same agent. And a one-page Agent Operating System you can hand to a client or an exec.

When can I actually pay you?

We’re invoicing reservations manually until checkout is live. Reserve a seat and we’ll email you the moment your tier opens.

When does the next cohort start?

We open cohorts on a rolling basis as seats fill. Drop your email on the audit checklist and we’ll notify you the moment the next cohort opens.
