TINYFISH
CURRENT
A journal for living in the agentic ageWe spent this issue chasing what looked like an agent problem and found something older. In 1995, the HTML spec defined a form as name/value pairs, a method, and a destination. The signature lines, routing codes, supervisor fields that a paper form carried natively were all out of scope. Agents inherited that hollowed-out version. Now they operate in it at a speed that makes the absence dangerous, because there's no surface to contest what went wrong or reverse it. This issue works through what rebuilding it would take.
