An August 23 VentureBeat analysis argues that enterprise context engineering has gone wrong by treating knowledge as application-specific, rebuilt per agent, rather than as a shared organizational asset.

It pairs with the previous day's piece finding that teams succeeding with agents in production are the ones narrowing each agent's scope and setting explicit operational boundaries instead of maximizing autonomy.
