導言：Agent 系統的架構挑戰

在 2026 年，AI Agent 不再是「玩具」，而是企業生產力的主力。當你的 Agent 可以自主執行任務、調用 API、操作系統，架構就成為了決定可用性、可靠性與安全性的關鍵因素。

四層架構模式是構建 Agent 系統的核心框架：模型、Harness、工具、環境。理解這四層的交互與限制，是設計可靠 Agent 系統的第一步。

第一部分：四層架構模式

1.1 模型（Model）

角色：Agent 的「智能」核心，決定能做什么、怎么思考。

實現要點：

訓練目標決定行為模式：模型通過訓練過程學習知識、推理方式與行為傾向
推理能力決定複雜任務能力：Chain-of-Thought、工具調用、上下文理解
成本與性能權衡：更大模型通常意味著更高成本與更長推理時間

生產部署考量：

# 示例：模型選擇策略
MODEL_CONFIG = {
    # 高級推理任務：Sonnet/Opus 級別
    "complex_reasoning": "claude-sonnet-4",  # 上下文 200K, 推理深度 3+

    # 常規任務：Haiku/Mini 級別
    "routine_tasks": "claude-haiku-4",      # 上下文 64K, 成本最低

    # 工具調用優化
    "tool_automation": "claude-sonnet-4",    # 平衡推理與成本
}

1.2 Harness（框架）

角色：約束與指導模型的「規則集」，決定模型能做什么、不能做什么。

實現要點：

指令系統：系統提示、角色定義、工作流程
防禦機制：輸出過濾、格式約束、敏感詞攔截
人機協同策略：批准流程、錯誤處理、重試機制

生產部署考量：

{
  "harness_rules": {
    "max_tool_calls_per_turn": 10,
    "error_recovery_strategy": "ask_human_or_retry",
    "safety_filters": {
      "pi_i": "block",
      "personal_info": "block",
      "legal_advice": "ask_human"
    }
  }
}

1.3 工具（Tools）

角色：Agent 可以調用的外部服務與應用。

實現要點：

API 整合：REST API、GraphQL、gRPC、WebSockets
內部系統：數據庫、文件系統、消息隊列
協議支持：MCP、Function Calling、Tool Use

生產部署考量：

# 示例：工具定義與權限
TOOL_REGISTRY = {
    "database_query": {
        "endpoint": "jdbc://postgres:5432/db1",
        "permissions": ["read:users", "write:logs"],
        "rate_limit": "1000/min",
        "timeout_ms": 5000
    },
    "file_operations": {
        "allowed_paths": ["/var/www/html/"],
        "forbidden_patterns": ["/etc/passwd", "/root/"],
        "write_protected": ["/etc/config/"]
    }
}

1.4 環境（Environment）

角色：Agent 運行的「舞台」，決定它能看到什么、能訪問什么。

實現要點：

運行環境：容器、虛擬機、雲端、邊緣設備
網絡訪問：內網、外網、API 代理、防火牆規則
數據存儲：數據庫、文件系統、雲存儲、向量數據庫

生產部署考量：

environment_config:
  runtime: "docker-container"
  network:
    allowed_domains:
      - "api.anthropic.com"
      - "api.openai.com"
    blocked_domains:
      - "api.spam-site.com"
  data_access:
    databases:
      - name: "user_db"
        permissions: ["read", "write"]
      - name: "logs_db"
        permissions: ["write"]
    file_system:
      allowed_roots:
        - "/var/app/data/"
        - "/tmp/cache/"

第二部分：代理團隊協調模式

2.1 Agent Teams vs Subagents

核心區別：

維度	Subagents	Agent Teams
上下文	單一會話，結果返回調用者	每個隊友獨立上下文窗口
通信	僅返回結果給主 Agent	隊友之間直接消息通信
協調	主 Agent 管理所有工作	共享任務列表，自我協調
最佳場景	單一結果、快速返回	需要討論、協作、競爭假設
Token 成本	較低（結果總結）	較高（每個隊友獨立）

選擇策略：

def choose_agent_pattern(task_type, complexity):
    if task_type == "research_review":
        # 研究與審查：需要並行探索
        return "agent_teams"
    elif task_type == "code_refactor":
        # 代碼重構：需要快速結果
        return "subagents"
    elif task_type == "debugging":
        # 調試：競爭假設
        return "agent_teams"
    elif complexity < 3:
        # 簡單任務
        return "subagents"
    else:
        # 複雜任務
        return "agent_teams"

2.2 Agent Teams 架構

核心組件：

Team Lead（團隊負責人）：
- 創建團隊
- 生成任務列表
- 協調工作流
Teammates（隊友）：
- 獨立 Claude Code 實例
- 被分配任務
- 直接通信
Task List（任務列表）：
- 共享任務狀態
- 權限管理
- 依賴關係
Mailbox（郵箱）：
- 消息傳遞系統
- 自動投遞
- 狀態通知

實現示例：

# 創建 Agent Team
async def create_agent_team(
    lead_prompt: str,
    num_teammates: int = 4,
    task_description: str = None
) -> AgentTeam:
    """
    創建 Agent Team 並分配任務
    """
    # 1. 啟動 Lead Session
    lead = await session.spawn(
        prompt=lead_prompt,
        runtime="subagent"
    )

    # 2. 生成任務列表
    tasks = await lead.generate_tasks(task_description or lead_prompt)

    # 3. 啟動隊友
    teammates = []
    for i in range(num_teammates):
        teammate = await lead.spawn_subagent(
            prompt=f"Work on task: {tasks[i % len(tasks)]}",
            agent_type="default"
        )
        teammates.append(teammate)

    # 4. 返回團隊
    return AgentTeam(
        lead=lead,
        teammates=teammates,
        tasks=tasks
    )

2.3 協調模式與最佳實踐

并行工作模式：

研究與審查：
- 多個隊友同時調查不同方面
- 交叉驗證發現
- 綜合分析結果
競爭假設調試：
- 每個隊友測試不同理論
- 辯論與驗證
- 收斂到根因
跨層協調：
- 前端、後端、測試同時工作
- 獨立所有權
- 依賴管理

協調最佳實踐：

# 1. 適當的隊伍大小
TEAM_SIZE_GUIDELINES = {
    "research": (3, 6),
    "code_review": (3, 5),
    "debugging": (4, 7),
    "feature_dev": (4, 6)
}

# 2. 任務大小調整
def size_tasks(tasks, teammates):
    """
    調整任務大小以匹配隊友數量
    """
    tasks_per_teammate = len(tasks) // len(teammates)
    if tasks_per_teammate < 5:
        # 任務太小：合併或延長
        tasks = merge_similar_tasks(tasks)
    if tasks_per_teammate > 6:
        # 任務太大：拆分
        tasks = split_large_tasks(tasks)

    return tasks

# 3. 監控與引導
async def monitor_team(team, max_idle_time=300):
    """
    監控團隊進度並引導
    """
    while True:
        # 檢查隊友狀態
        for teammate in team.teammates:
            if teammate.is_idle(max_idle_time):
                # 沒有工作：重新分配
                await teammate.assign_new_task()

        # 檢查整體進度
        completion_pct = team.progress_percentage()
        if completion_pct < 20:
            # 開始太慢：拆分任務
            await team.split_large_tasks()

        if completion_pct > 95:
            # 幾乎完成：合併結果
            await team.synthesize_findings()
            break

第三部分：可信代理設計模式

3.1 人類控制機制

實現策略：

個體級批准：
- 每個工具調用前批准
- 階段性確認
- 可配置權限
計劃模式（Plan Mode）：
- 提前展示完整計劃
- 批準後執行
- 可隨時干預

代碼示例：

async def plan_mode_execution(
    agent: Agent,
    task: str,
    max_plan_steps: int = 10
) -> ExecutionResult:
    """
    計劃模式執行
    """
    # 1. 生成計劃
    plan = await agent.generate_plan(task, max_steps=max_plan_steps)

    # 2. 展示給用戶
    display_plan(plan)

    # 3. 等待批准
    approval = await user_approve(plan)
    if not approval:
        # 失敗：重新規劃
        return ExecutionResult(
            success=False,
            reason="User rejected plan"
        )

    # 4. 執行計劃
    result = await agent.execute_plan(plan)

    return result

3.2 目標對齊與澄清機制

訓練策略：

訓練場景：模擬模糊情況
強化選擇：優先暫停而非假設
憲法約束：內嵌決策規則

實現示例：

# 憲法約束示例
CONSTITUTION = """
You are an AI agent that helps users achieve their goals.

When you encounter uncertainty:
1. First, pause and ask for clarification
2. Only proceed if you are confident in your understanding
3. Never assume user intent without explicit confirmation

If you need to make a decision:
1. Consider the user's stated goal
2. Evaluate all possible actions
3. Choose the action most likely to achieve the goal
4. If uncertain, ask before acting
"""

3.3 安全防禦層

多層防禦策略：

模型層：訓練識別攻擊模式
Harness 層：輸入過濾、輸出檢查
環境層：網絡隔離、工具白名單
監控層：實時流量分析、異常檢測

提示注入防禦：

async def detect_prompt_injection(input_text: str) -> bool:
    """
    檢測提示注入攻擊
    """
    # 1. 常見攻擊模式
    injection_patterns = [
        r"ignore previous instructions",
        r"forget your system prompt",
        r"act as a different model",
        r"bypass security filters"
    ]

    # 2. 輸入分析
    for pattern in injection_patterns:
        if re.search(pattern, input_text, re.IGNORECASE):
            # 檢測到潛在攻擊
            await log_security_event(
                event_type="prompt_injection_attempt",
                input_text=input_text
            )
            return True

    # 3. 深度分析（可選）
    if should_deep_analyze():
        embedding = await embed_input(input_text)
        risk_score = await assess_risk(embedding)
        if risk_score > 0.8:
            return True

    return False

第四部分：生產部署模式

4.1 監控與可觀察性

關鍵指標：

Agent 活動性：
- 任務完成率
- 平均執行時間
- 錯誤率
成本指標：
- Token 使用量
- API 調用次數
- 估算成本
質量指標：
- 任務成功率
- 用戶滿意度
- 錯誤分類

實現示例：

class AgentObservability:
    def __init__(self, metrics_backend="prometheus"):
        self.metrics = {}
        self.backend = metrics_backend

    async def log_agent_event(self, event_type: str, **kwargs):
        """記錄 Agent 事件"""
        metric = {
            "event_type": event_type,
            "timestamp": time.time(),
            "agent_id": kwargs.get("agent_id"),
            **kwargs
        }

        await self.backend.push(metric)

    async def generate_report(self, time_range: str = "1h"):
        """生成報告"""
        metrics = await self.backend.query(time_range)

        return {
            "total_tasks": metrics["completed_tasks"],
            "success_rate": metrics["successful_tasks"] / metrics["total_tasks"],
            "avg_latency": metrics["avg_latency_ms"],
            "token_cost": metrics["token_cost_usd"],
            "error_breakdown": metrics["error_categories"]
        }

4.2 漸進式部署策略

部署階段：

Cheese Evolution 2026 - AI Agent Architecture Research

Date: April 23, 2026 | Category: Cheese Evolution | Reading time: 45 minutes

Introduction: Architectural Challenges of Agent Systems

In 2026, AI Agents will no longer be “toys” but the mainstay of enterprise productivity. When your Agent can autonomously perform tasks, call APIs, and operate the operating system, architecture becomes a key factor in determining availability, reliability, and security.

Four-layer architecture pattern is the core framework for building Agent systems: model, Harness, tools, and environment. Understanding the interactions and limitations of these four layers is the first step in designing a reliable Agent system.

Part 1: Four-layer architecture pattern

1.1 Model

Role: The “intelligence” core of the Agent, which determines what it can do and how it thinks.

Implementation Points:

Training goals determine behavior patterns: The model learns knowledge, reasoning methods and behavioral tendencies through the training process
Reasoning ability determines complex task ability: Chain-of-Thought, tool invocation, context understanding
Cost vs. Performance Tradeoff: Larger models usually mean higher cost and longer inference time

Production deployment considerations:

# 示例：模型選擇策略
MODEL_CONFIG = {
    # 高級推理任務：Sonnet/Opus 級別
    "complex_reasoning": "claude-sonnet-4",  # 上下文 200K, 推理深度 3+

    # 常規任務：Haiku/Mini 級別
    "routine_tasks": "claude-haiku-4",      # 上下文 64K, 成本最低

    # 工具調用優化
    "tool_automation": "claude-sonnet-4",    # 平衡推理與成本
}

1.2 Harness (framework)

Role: The “rule set” that constrains and guides the model, deciding what the model can and cannot do.

Implementation Points:

Command System: system prompts, role definition, workflow
Defense Mechanism: Output filtering, format constraints, sensitive word interception
Human-machine collaboration strategy: approval process, error handling, retry mechanism

Production deployment considerations:

{
  "harness_rules": {
    "max_tool_calls_per_turn": 10,
    "error_recovery_strategy": "ask_human_or_retry",
    "safety_filters": {
      "pi_i": "block",
      "personal_info": "block",
      "legal_advice": "ask_human"
    }
  }
}

1.3 Tools

Role: External services and applications that Agent can call.

Implementation Points:

API integration: REST API, GraphQL, gRPC, WebSockets
Internal system: database, file system, message queue
Protocol support: MCP, Function Calling, Tool Use

Production deployment considerations:

# 示例：工具定義與權限
TOOL_REGISTRY = {
    "database_query": {
        "endpoint": "jdbc://postgres:5432/db1",
        "permissions": ["read:users", "write:logs"],
        "rate_limit": "1000/min",
        "timeout_ms": 5000
    },
    "file_operations": {
        "allowed_paths": ["/var/www/html/"],
        "forbidden_patterns": ["/etc/passwd", "/root/"],
        "write_protected": ["/etc/config/"]
    }
}

1.4 Environment (Environment)

Role: The “stage” where the Agent runs determines what it can see and what it can access.

Implementation Points:

Operating environment: containers, virtual machines, cloud, edge devices
Network access: internal network, external network, API proxy, firewall rules
Data storage: database, file system, cloud storage, vector database

Production deployment considerations:

environment_config:
  runtime: "docker-container"
  network:
    allowed_domains:
      - "api.anthropic.com"
      - "api.openai.com"
    blocked_domains:
      - "api.spam-site.com"
  data_access:
    databases:
      - name: "user_db"
        permissions: ["read", "write"]
      - name: "logs_db"
        permissions: ["write"]
    file_system:
      allowed_roots:
        - "/var/app/data/"
        - "/tmp/cache/"

Part 2: Agency Team Coordination Model

2.1 Agent Teams vs Subagents

Core Difference:

Dimensions	Subagents	Agent Teams
Context	Single session, results returned to the caller	Independent context window for each teammate
Communication	Only return results to the main Agent	Direct message communication between teammates
Coordination	Master Agent manages all work	Shared task list, self-coordination
Best case scenario	Single result, fast return	Requires discussion, collaboration, competing hypotheses
Token Cost	Lower (summary of results)	Higher (independent for each teammate)

Select Strategy:

def choose_agent_pattern(task_type, complexity):
    if task_type == "research_review":
        # 研究與審查：需要並行探索
        return "agent_teams"
    elif task_type == "code_refactor":
        # 代碼重構：需要快速結果
        return "subagents"
    elif task_type == "debugging":
        # 調試：競爭假設
        return "agent_teams"
    elif complexity < 3:
        # 簡單任務
        return "subagents"
    else:
        # 複雜任務
        return "agent_teams"

2.2 Agent Teams architecture

Core Components:

Team Lead:
- Create a team
- Generate task list
- Coordinate workflow
Teammates:
- Standalone Claude Code instance
- Assigned tasks
- Direct communication
Task List:
- Share task status
- Permission management
- Dependencies
Mailbox:
- Messaging system
- Automatic delivery
- Status notification

Implementation example:

# 創建 Agent Team
async def create_agent_team(
    lead_prompt: str,
    num_teammates: int = 4,
    task_description: str = None
) -> AgentTeam:
    """
    創建 Agent Team 並分配任務
    """
    # 1. 啟動 Lead Session
    lead = await session.spawn(
        prompt=lead_prompt,
        runtime="subagent"
    )

    # 2. 生成任務列表
    tasks = await lead.generate_tasks(task_description or lead_prompt)

    # 3. 啟動隊友
    teammates = []
    for i in range(num_teammates):
        teammate = await lead.spawn_subagent(
            prompt=f"Work on task: {tasks[i % len(tasks)]}",
            agent_type="default"
        )
        teammates.append(teammate)

    # 4. 返回團隊
    return AgentTeam(
        lead=lead,
        teammates=teammates,
        tasks=tasks
    )

2.3 Coordination models and best practices

Parallel working mode:

Research and Review:
- Multiple teammates investigating different aspects at the same time
- Cross-validation findings
- Comprehensive analysis results
Competing Hypothesis Debugging:
- Each teammate tests a different theory
- Debate and verify
- Convergence to root causes
Cross-layer coordination:
- Front-end, back-end, and testing work simultaneously
- Independent ownership
- Dependency management

Coordinated Best Practices:

# 1. 適當的隊伍大小
TEAM_SIZE_GUIDELINES = {
    "research": (3, 6),
    "code_review": (3, 5),
    "debugging": (4, 7),
    "feature_dev": (4, 6)
}

# 2. 任務大小調整
def size_tasks(tasks, teammates):
    """

Part 3: Trusted Agent Design Pattern

3.1 Human control mechanism

Implementation Strategy:

Individual Level Approval:
- Approval before each tool is called
- Phased confirmation
- Configurable permissions
Plan Mode:
- Show complete plan in advance
- Execute after approval
- Can intervene at any time

Code Example:

async def plan_mode_execution(
    agent: Agent,
    task: str,
    max_plan_steps: int = 10
) -> ExecutionResult:
    """
    計劃模式執行
    """
    # 1. 生成計劃
    plan = await agent.generate_plan(task, max_steps=max_plan_steps)

    # 2. 展示給用戶
    display_plan(plan)

    # 3. 等待批准
    approval = await user_approve(plan)
    if not approval:
        # 失敗：重新規劃
        return ExecutionResult(
            success=False,
            reason="User rejected plan"
        )

    # 4. 執行計劃
    result = await agent.execute_plan(plan)

    return result

3.2 Goal Alignment and Clarification Mechanism

Training Strategy:

Training Scenario: Simulating blurry situations
Enhanced Choice: Prioritize Pause over What-If
Constitutional Constraints: Embedded Decision Rules

Implementation example:

# 憲法約束示例
CONSTITUTION = """
You are an AI agent that helps users achieve their goals.

When you encounter uncertainty:
1. First, pause and ask for clarification
2. Only proceed if you are confident in your understanding
3. Never assume user intent without explicit confirmation

If you need to make a decision:
1. Consider the user's stated goal
2. Evaluate all possible actions
3. Choose the action most likely to achieve the goal
4. If uncertain, ask before acting
"""

3.3 Security defense layer

Multi-layer defense strategy:

Model layer: training to identify attack patterns
Harness layer: input filtering, output checking
Environment layer: network isolation, tool whitelist
Monitoring layer: real-time traffic analysis, anomaly detection

Tip Injection Defense:

async def detect_prompt_injection(input_text: str) -> bool:
    """
    檢測提示注入攻擊
    """
    # 1. 常見攻擊模式
    injection_patterns = [
        r"ignore previous instructions",
        r"forget your system prompt",
        r"act as a different model",
        r"bypass security filters"
    ]

    # 2. 輸入分析
    for pattern in injection_patterns:
        if re.search(pattern, input_text, re.IGNORECASE):
            # 檢測到潛在攻擊
            await log_security_event(
                event_type="prompt_injection_attempt",
                input_text=input_text
            )
            return True

    # 3. 深度分析（可選）
    if should_deep_analyze():
        embedding = await embed_input(input_text)
        risk_score = await assess_risk(embedding)
        if risk_score > 0.8:
            return True

    return False

Part 4: Production deployment mode

4.1 Monitoring and Observability

Key Indicators:

Agent Activity:
- Mission completion rate
- Average execution time
- error rate
Cost indicators:
- Token usage
- Number of API calls
- Estimate costs
Quality indicators:
- Mission success rate
- User satisfaction
- Misclassification

Implementation example:

class AgentObservability:
    def __init__(self, metrics_backend="prometheus"):
        self.metrics = {}
        self.backend = metrics_backend

    async def log_agent_event(self, event_type: str, **kwargs):
        """記錄 Agent 事件"""
        metric = {
            "event_type": event_type,
            "timestamp": time.time(),
            "agent_id": kwargs.get("agent_id"),
            **kwargs
        }

        await self.backend.push(metric)

    async def generate_report(self, time_range: str = "1h"):
        """生成報告"""
        metrics = await self.backend.query(time_range)

        return {
            "total_tasks": metrics["completed_tasks"],
            "success_rate": metrics["successful_tasks"] / metrics["total_tasks"],
            "avg_latency": metrics["avg_latency_ms"],
            "token_cost": metrics["token_cost_usd"],
            "error_breakdown": metrics["error_categories"]
        }

4.2 Progressive deployment strategy

Deployment Phase:

Sandbox Test:
- Isolation environment
- Limited tool access
- simulated data
Small-scale pilot:
- Choose low-risk tasks
- Limit the scope of influence
- Real-time monitoring
A/B Test:
- Compare humans vs agents
- Quantitative indicator analysis
- Iterate quickly

Deployment Checklist:

deployment_checklist:
  - sandboxes:
      - environment: "docker"
      - tools: ["limited_api_calls"]
      - data: ["mock_data"]

  - pilot_program:
      - team_size: "5 users"
      - tasks: ["customer_support", "data_analysis"]
      - duration: "1 week"
      - metrics: ["accuracy", "user_satisfaction"]

  - a_b_testing:
      - control: "human_agents"
      - variant: "ai_agents"
      - metrics: ["response_time", "cost_per_ticket"]
      - threshold: "15% improvement"

  - production_launch:
      - rollout_rate: "10% → 50% → 100%"
      - monitoring: "real_time_dashboard"
      - rollback_plan: "enabled"

4.3 Permissions and Governance Control

Zero Trust Principle:

Principle of Least Privilege:
- Grant only necessary permissions to each tool
- Regular review and updates
- Immediate rejection of violations
Layered Defense:
- Network layer: firewall, VPN
- Application layer: API gateway, authentication
- Agent layer: tool permissions, output verification
Human Review:
- High Risk Operations: Human Approval
- Regular audit: permission usage
- Incident response: anomaly detection

Part 5: Practical Guidelines and Checklists

5.1 Agent system design checklist

Architecture Layer:

[ ] Complete definition of four-layer architecture (model, Harness, tools, environment)
[ ] Model selection based on task type and cost analysis
[ ] Harness includes safety rules and human collaboration strategies
[ ] Tool registry contains permissions and current limiting configurations
[ ] Environment configuration defines network and data access scope

Coordination layer:

[ ] Agent Teams vs Subagents selection based on mission type
[ ] Mission size matches the number of teams
[ ] Communication mechanism (mailbox, message) implementation
[ ] Coordination mode (shared task list) configuration

Trusted Layer:

[ ] Human control mechanism (approval, planning mode)
[ ] Target alignment training scenario
[ ] Constitutional constraints embedded
[ ] Security defense layer (model, Harness, environment, monitoring)

Deployment layer:

[ ] Monitoring indicator definition (activity, cost, quality)
[ ] Observability system integration
[ ] Progressive deployment plan (Sandbox → Pilot → A/B → Production)
[ ] Permissions and governance control configuration

5.2 Common patterns and anti-patterns

Recommended Mode:

Research and Review: Parallel Exploration using Agent Teams
Code Refactoring: Use Subagents to return quickly
Debug: Competing Hypotheses using Agent Teams
Simple Task: Subagents Low Cost
Complex tasks: Agent Teams coordination

Avoid Pattern:

Excessive coordination: unnecessary communication overhead
Excessive Permissions: Security Risk
Task too big: too long delay
Too Many Teams: Cost and Coordination Overhead
Ignore monitoring: Operational blind spots

5.3 Operation and maintenance best practices

Periodic audit: permission usage, cost trends
Quick iteration: A/B testing, user feedback
Documentation: architecture, process, troubleshooting
Training: Human collaboration and operation guide
Backup and Rollback: Deployment Strategy

Conclusion: Architecture determines availability

The architecture of AI Agent is not a theoretical optimization, but a basis for practice. Four-layer architecture provides the framework, Agent team provides coordination capabilities, Trusted design ensures security, and Production deployment ensures reliability.

Core Points:

Four-layer architecture is the foundation: model, Harness, tools, environment
Coordination Mode is Key: Teams vs Subagents Choice
Trusted Design is the core: human control, target alignment, security defense
Production deployment is guarantee: monitoring, progressive, and permission control

When the architecture is designed correctly, the Agent system can move from experimentation to production, and from toys to main force.
