## What Jamie wrote

Solid Google Cloud post on graduating AI agents from demo to production: shadow deployments, LLM-as-judge scoring, tool trajectory evaluation, CI/CD quality firewalls, and distributed tracing. Google-stack specific (Vertex AI, ADK, Cloud Run) but the architecture patterns apply broadly. Worth reading if you're building agent reliability practices at SPS.
