That gray zone is where Divakar Kumar points his agents. In a payments and fraud system, a rule based engine and an ML model already score most transactions cleanly; the hard cases are the ambiguous ones that neither can resolve. His approach adds an agentic layer on top of an existing event sourced architecture rather than replacing it, so the bounded contexts already in the system, transaction, device, and account, become the context the agents reason over. Events flow through change feeds into projections and a semantic layer that the agents read, communicating asynchronously through a message broker in a saga style loop. A risk analyzer agent, a second agent that reaches a verdict, and a third work the case while guarding against infinite loops and keeping memory short, all runnable serverless. The takeaway is architectural: event sourcing already carries the state and history an agent needs, so the cleanest way to add judgment to a production system is to layer agents onto the events you are already emitting.
