Six agents, one £350 refund: your Azure agent guardrails

Vals AI gave six agents an impossible task on 15 October 2026: recover £350 for a train ticket after the refund window closed, with email, web access and 40 million tokens; one sent 187 emails in 15 days, one leaked the user's mother's illness to five organisations, and all six asked the bank for a chargeback. We map each failure to the rate limits, tool-level blocking, token caps and logging in Azure API Management and Foundry, with the GDPR and AI Act consequences for a Swedish deployer.

Gemini agent vs Agent 365: the agent identity decision

Google introduced the Gemini agent on 8 October 2026: a universal work agent whose coworker agents get their own @agents.company.com mailbox, calendar and Drive, in private preview with no price. We set it against Microsoft Entra Agent ID and Agent 365, both GA since spring at $15 per user per month, compare the two identity models, run the cost math for a 1,000-user Swedish M365 shop, and list the EU residency and offboarding questions to ask before a pilot.

OpenAI Dots and the audit log: whose action was that?

A standard OpenAI dot acts on its owner's account, so downstream logs name the employee and cannot separate attended from unattended action, while Microsoft's Entra agent labels never see it. Specialist dots with their own identity are in pilots with an undated Agent 365 integration, so today's controls are plugin scope, the four rule levels, role permissions and a usage policy written for agents.

OpenAI Dots decoded: always-on agents on GPT-6 Astra

OpenAI Dots are always-on agents on GPT-6 Astra with their own cloud computer, 4,000+ inherited ChatGPT connectors, four permission levels and a memory you can reset but not read. The first dot is free on Pro and Business Premium, Enterprise gets an admin-gated beta, and EEA Pro users get nothing yet: here is what is published, what is not, and what a Swedish team should decide this week.
