# QitOS Blog

> Design notes, field reports, and practical lessons from building agents with QitOS.

The QitOS Blog is where we write about how the framework is actually used in research and real agent workflows.

The docs explain **what** QitOS does. The blog is where we explain:

* why certain design decisions were made
* what worked in real runs
* what failed in benchmarks and long-running agents
* how prompt, parser, tools, memory, and observability interact in practice

## What we want to publish here

We expect the blog to grow around a few recurring themes:

* **Design notes**: why the framework is structured the way it is
* **Field reports**: what we learned from long-running coding and audit agents
* **Benchmark reports**: GAIA, Tau-Bench, and CyBench observations
* **Prompting and parsing**: model harness (the wiring layer that connects a transport, parser, and protocol) choices and protocol (the output format the model is asked to follow) tradeoffs
* **Observability**: how `qita` turns traces (structured logs of all run events and steps) into research artifacts
