  "why_included": "An OpenAI research paper argues AI agents now sustain longer, more complex tasks and lift productivity across roles. The vendor's own read on the delegation workflows agent-first builders already run daily.",

  "practical_implication": "**Why it matters** Sustained task length is the number that decides how much you can hand a **Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex** session unattended — if agents genuinely hold longer autonomous runs, it changes how you scope work and how much you batch before reviewing.",
