An autonomous AI engine named ALEF has been developed to automatically identify and catalog failure modes within agentic AI systems. This engine analyzes engineering discussions on GitHub, detects recurring issues, and publishes these patterns with empirical evidence. Notably, ALEF identified one of its own failures, a safety mechanism that became permanently blocking, and also documented a common issue where agents iterate without preserving progress. AI
