Fail-Closed Agent Networks: A 10-Tuple WORM Architecture
A developer details a fail-closed architecture for multi-agent AI systems, using a 10-tuple envelope with HMAC-SHA256 seals and PostgreSQL ACID transactions. Chaos tests across 82 CI cycles showed 100% pass rate on one-effect-per-event and zero duplicate state transitions. The design isolates non-determinism at ingestion and defaults to HOLD on unverified claims.

This is a niche but rigorous engineering pattern for agent coordination, though its real-world adoption remains unproven beyond the author's own tests.
