Program Operating System
A provisional architecture connecting commitment networks, observability, runtime, control, execution actors, and feedback loops.
- Program Operating SystemA provisional architecture for representing, observing, governing, and executing complex programs across humans, agents, software systems, suppliers, and physical work.
- Program as Code: The Full ArgumentThe reporting-centered model of program management is being replaced by something with software-like properties. Here is the full argument, what it makes possible, where it breaks, and what I still cannot answer.
- Program ObservabilityThe sensing and state-reconciliation layer of a proposed Program Operating System: evidence, claims, provenance, uncertainty, and 10 signals that can still be gamed.
- Program as CodeComplex programs are networks of commitments under uncertainty. Program as Code is the implementation philosophy for making that system observable, governable, and increasingly executable.
- A Day in the Life of a Technical Program Manager in 2035Imagining how AI-native teams, agent swarms, and simulation bias reshape a TPM daily routine, and which parts of the job survive it.
