Persona-Execution Separation: An Architecture Pattern for Evolving LLM Agents under Execution Audit
Addresses the core architectural challenge of building traceable, governed agent systems in regulated environments.
AI Summary
Presents Persona-Execution Separation, an architecture pattern for enterprise LLM agents that keeps execution auditable while allowing persona instructions to evolve freely.
