   4. Classify data by sensitivity

7. What is the key insight about "Breaker config prompt" in the context of AI agents and tool circuit breakers?

   1. An agent is a new attack surface. Prompt injection, privilege escalation, data e…
   2. Classify data by sensitivity
   3. Provide tool SLA and call pattern. Ask: 'Suggest open/half-open/closed thresholds with reasoning.'
   4. Log the resource set the agent touched

8. What is the key insight about "Coordinate with downstream" in the context of AI agents and tool circuit breakers?

   1. An agent is a new attack surface. Prompt injection, privilege escalation, data e…
   2. Classify data by sensitivity
   3. Log the resource set the agent touched
   4. Aggressive breakers can mask real outages — alert humans when breakers trip.

9. Which statement accurately describes an aspect of AI agents and tool circuit breakers?

   1. Failing tools cause agents to retry into outage; circuit breakers protect both the agent and the dependency.
