// 02 / The session
Turning new model capabilities into reliable production systems
Abstract
Most agents work in the demo and break in production. This session covers the patterns OpenAI’s applied team sees in startups that ship reliable agents: scoped tools, evaluations from day one, guardrails and the observability needed to fix failures quickly.
What you’ll learn
How to scope an agent’s tools so failures stay contained
Building evaluations before you scale usage
What to log so production failures are easy to debug
