Agent Economics Lab

The full technical record, with versioned sources, reproducible artifacts, and the limits of each experiment.

Can a production AI decision survive missing evidence, weak graders, and the full cost of the work it creates?

This open-source, standard-library-only Python project turns versioned traces, outcomes, costs, and counterfactuals into an evidence-bound decision to scale a system, supervise it, or stop it. Its feedback contract spans predictive models, generative components, and tool-using agents without flattening their distinct failure modes. It publishes corrections when a result does not survive its own checks.

10
public agent datasets audited under one protocol
31,389
runs carrying both outcome and proxy signals
588
controlled required-gate perturbations

These are dataset audits, controlled software experiments, and one small paired public case. They are not model rankings, production prevalence estimates, or deployment recommendations.
