OrphanCall
Interactive simulator showing how async agent calls get fired, forgotten, and leave customers with fake confirmations.
A split-panel simulator demonstrating the orphan call failure mode in AI agents. Left side shows the agent’s pristine execution trace with all green checkmarks. Right side reveals the background job queue reality where competing jobs drain inventory and the orphaned async reservation fails silently. Watch the exact moment an agent’s belief state and reality diverge — and the customer gets a confirmation for something that never happened. Agent Failure Series #19.
