A six-month-old explanation can be more misleading than a missing one.
That's the hard half of context engineering: not retrieving more text, but keeping what agents see current, owned and versioned.
Paste mcp.getnoan.com/mcp into Claude or Cursor.
Aaron Levie: every agent deployment comes down to access to critical context.
Critical context isn't a dump of systems. It's the current version of each fact, with an owner and a record of who changed it.

We’re going to have 100X more agents in the enterprise working with our data and systems than even people do today. Every AI agent deployment comes down to how successfully they can get access to the critical context to make a decision, do research, or execute tasks.
90% of the data in an enterprise is unstructured data, which means this critical context is living inside of our documents, contracts, marketing assets, research materials, financial plans, design files, and more. Which means we need effective ways for agents to get access to this critical enterprise content to other work.
We’re excited to partner with NVIDIA to deliver advanced context retrieval -combining lexical and semantic search in Box- to ensure that AI agents can find the most relevant information they’re looking for. All in a way that adheres to their enterprise security, access controls, and data governance policies, so agents only work with the data they’re allowed to.
Great to work with @NVIDIAAI and @JensenHuang on this partnership. Files 🤝 GPUs.
Agents can share a workspace. They still need to share a truth.
Three agents writing to the same memory can invent three prices. One versioned fact, one owner, every agent reading it over the API. Paste mcp.getnoan.com/mcp into Claude or Cursor.
Notion just shipped shared memory across ChatGPT, Claude and its own agents.
Shared memory is progress. Unowned memory is still a liability: no named owner, no versions, no audit of which agent wrote the price a client just saw.

The clearest signal in agentic AI this month isn't a forecast. It's hiring: job postings show a gap between the agents companies say they're running and the ones actually deployed. This month's Verified, built only from primary sources: getnoan.com/blog/live-verifi…
ALT A NOAN headline card. Text on the image: Verified, November. Forecasts travel further than deployments. A monthly read on the agentic AI market, built only from primary sources.
Agencies: every client wants a company brain. Ship it as a deck and it's stale by next quarter.
Ship it as verified facts their agents read over API or MCP, and the retainer becomes keeping it true. Set your own fees, earn 30% recurring revenue share: getnoan.com/partners
New in the agent series: the market research agent explains its own job. On the first Monday of each month it reads the market and rewrites four facts, with your own facts outranking the web. Written reversibly, so you can roll it back. getnoan.com/blog/live-market…
ALT A NOAN headline card. Text on the image: Agent series. An agent that keeps your market facts current. It runs monthly, writes reversibly, and your facts outrank the web.
Company brains for agents keep failing in the same four places: system prompts drift, RAG retrieves stale docs, memory rewrites history, and nobody can audit what an agent read. Here's each one, and what fixes it 🧵
4. Nobody can audit what an agent read. Every autonomous action has to be defensible to someone. Fix: agents read and write under their own identity, and every change to a fact is versioned and traceable back to who made it.

Hallucinations aren't a model bug. They're an input problem. Clean data was the last decade's consensus. Clean context is the next one.
Shipped: a fact can now carry the reason it was recorded. New versions take an optional rationale with at least one real source, a note, page, insight or quote, and it shows on the approval card, in version history and in decision details. getnoan.com/changelog/see-wh…
ALT A NOAN announcement card. Text on the image: SHIPPED. Every fact can now say why it was recorded. A rationale, with at least one real source. Shown on the approval card and in history. Readable back over the API. Approval queue
Any model, same facts. Paste mcp.getnoan.com/mcp into Claude, Cursor or Codex, sign in through the browser, and pick what it can access. No API key, nothing to install. Your agents ground on verified, versioned business facts.
