This is the user-facing experience around agents; building their logic belongs to Agent tooling, and controlling their calls belongs to Tool governance.SAP only hold. The second half is about the guardrails he had AI choose for the project it then had to live inside: tests and coverage, type safety, static checks, dependency and secret scanning, blocking on commit, on push and in CI.
