Vercel argues that code-generating agents require explicit security boundaries between components, not a monolithic architecture. The post outlines a practical threat model where agents can be exploited via prompt injection in untrusted data, then demonstrates an architecture for running agent orchestration and generated code in separate security contexts.

Security boundaries in agentic architectures
Vercel demonstrates a compartmentalized architecture for code-generating agents that isolates orchestration from execution contexts to defend against prompt injection attacks in untrusted data.

AEM: Adaptive Entropy Modulation for Multi-Turn Agentic Reinforcement Learning
ArXiv researchers introduce Adaptive Entropy Modulation (AEM), a technique that dynamically tunes randomness in RL agents to improve performance across extended multi-turn sequential decision-making.
