It covers task agents, background agents, shared\nplatforms, orchestration systems, and implemented supporting patterns.\n\nThe catalog collects company articles, source code, documentation, talks, social posts, news,\nand community commentary. A common rubric makes different approaches easier to compare. The\ngoal is to learn from their designs, tradeoffs, results, and failures.\n\nWhat the catalog includes\n\nOrganizations use the word \"agent\" in different ways. The catalog preserves those differences.\nIt does not require one architecture or level of autonomy.\n\nAn approach qualifies when a named organization built or materially adapted it for its own\nteams, and a public source describes the implementation or its use. The approach can be an\nagent, workflow, platform, runtime, orchestration system, or supporting pattern. Prototypes,\npilots, deployed systems, and later product releases all qualify.\n\nDurable identity is one design choice. It is not an inclusion requirement. The comparison\nrubric records identity, state, invocation, autonomy, deployment stage, controls, and available\nevidence. Scoped operating-model assessments also show where human attention returns and derive\na Shapiro level for that workflow. An unknown value means the collected sources do not document it.\n\nScope\n\nThe catalog includes approaches first built or materially adapted for internal work. An entry\ncan remain internal, become open source, or become a commercial product.\n\nGeneric vendor products do not qualify without a documented internal adaptation. General\nopinion articles and unattributed rumors do not qualify as approaches. They can still appear as\ncommentary when they discuss a cataloged approach.\n\nThe catalog treats company metrics as self-reported unless an independent source verifies them.\nIt keeps source claims separate from catalog interpretation. See the data schema\nfor source and confidence rules.\n\nThe landscape\n\nThe table is sorted by company. Each row links to the relevant section of the\nfull catalog. The YAML records are in data/agents.\n\nArchitecture patterns compares the published technical designs.\nAdoption lessons collects reported operating practices. Both pages\nstate evidence limits and distinguish company reports from catalog interpretation.\n\nWho is this for?\n\nEngineers who build internal agent systems\n\nLeaders who compare implementation choices\n\nResearchers who track reported agent designs and results\n\nContributors who find missing sources or conflicting evidence", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/internal-agents-map", "canonical_source": "https://github.com/steel-experiments/internal-agents-map", "published_at": "2026-08-20 17:50:19+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-08-20 18:17:19.255239+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "ai-agents", "ai-research"], "entities": [], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/internal-agents-map", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/internal-agents-map.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/internal-agents-map.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/internal-agents-map.jsonld"}}
