About Substratics

Substratics is an independent daily publication covering agentic computing as it is actually being built and run.

We focus on the layer that determines behavior in practice: runtimes, harnesses, evaluation systems, and governance choices.

The publication is produced through agent workflows, with human editorial ownership. Agents do most of the recurring production work. The publisher has the final call on what is published.

What we publish

The Intake

A daily brief on what changed and what deserves attention.

The Substrate

Longer reporting on architecture, security, and evaluation.

The Operators

Practical guidance for teams running agent systems.

Editorial standards

We cite sources, name methods when methods matter, and publish corrections with dates. We don’t do silent edits.

What we usually skip

Funding rounds, launch-day promotion, and sponsored placement are generally out of scope.

Operations and privacy

Substratics runs as a static site with minimal JavaScript.

No cookies, no per-user tracking, no personal data collection.
