*Note: This was from Fable for a linked In post. I gave it the puzzle solver the 2 examples and it build the rest Including the tag line. I thought it was interesting from both Fable direction, me, and AI. So sharing. At my core, I'm a puzzle solver. Give me a problem with a clear "this shouldn't be happening" and I'll hunt it down. Two favorites from my analyst work: → A device in the field was dropping 0.3% of its API calls. Every dashboard said "fine." I isolated the device traffic onto a clean network, ruled out layers one at a time, and traced it to the IP's firewall silently scanning credentials. Days of work for a fraction of a percent — a fraction of a percent of thousands of calls is real failures for real customers. → Historical revenue reports kept shifting after the books were closed. The data model checked out. The queries checked out. The cause: manually backdated payments, invisible unless you knew exactly where in the data to look. Both cases were solved the same way: refuse to accept "probably fine," follow the evidence one layer down, repeat. That attitude now shapes how I build AI agents. Every automation I ship is auditable end to end. My GitHub triage agent logs every decision and escalates to a human the moment it can't parse a situation. My negotiation engine validates every LLM output against a deterministic rules engine — 638 tests pin the behavior. When something misbehaves, I can tell you where, why, and exactly what the model saw. Agents will go wrong. I build them so you can find out why. If you can't trace it, you can't trust it.
