“Taxonomy for Agent Systems (T4AS)” introduces a simple but powerful way to tame today’s chaotic landscape of AI agents. Steve Vitka presents T4AS as a reference architecture that cleanly separates three roles: the Agent (“strategist” that plans but never acts), the Workflow (“general” that orchestrates tools), and the Workspace (“battlefield” where certified tools and APIs actually run). By enforcing these boundaries, T4AS turns ad‑hoc agent stacks into secure, auditable, and composable systems rather than brittle prompt‑spaghetti.
