Re:The zero-cost fallacy: open-source software in the agentic era

imho the prompt is part of a "design", not a build artifact (unless your build system is weird).
a deterministic build system for prompts is a called a compiler.

The agentic era definition of open source is garbage.
Software that is not open source, is proprietary software. Open weight models, are not open source. Binary blobs in a repo with an Apache license, is not open source.
Am I a retro-grouch? Probably. I guess it doesn't matter anymore what I think about it.

No surprise some of the largest producers are trying to find ways to increase profits by blending beans that are cheaper and don't taste as good.

I do think that the correct instructions should be there, but it should also include how to fix it in the event that you didn't.
