From Prompts to Contracts: Why I Built the MOVA Contract Agent
The Problem Over the past year, AI agents have become incredibly powerful. Tools like large language models, coding assistants, and browser agents can already perform complex tasks. But there is still a fundamental problem. Most AI interactions today are based on prompts. A user writes instructions in natural language and hopes the model interprets them correctly. This works for experimentation, but it becomes fragile when applied to real business processes. A business task is not just a conversation. It has: rules policies verification responsibility for the result Without structure, AI execution becomes unpredictable. That question led me to explore a different approach. What if business tasks were not executed through prompts, but through contracts? The Idea Instead of asking an AI agent to “solve a problem,” the system should first transform the request into a structured contract. A contract defines: what the user intends to achieve which policies apply what actions are allowed how
