Agent versioning
the practice of explicitly labeling, preserving, and maintaining changelogs for cognitive agents to enable comparison, rollback, and learning from changes by tracking version history, documenting diffs, and storing previous states
Why This Is a Definition
This definition establishes the precise semantic boundary of 'agent versioning' by identifying its genus (practice of tracking cognitive agents) and differentia (explicit labeling, preservation, changelog maintenance, enabling comparison/rollback/learning). It distinguishes versioning from mere labeling and clearly defines the functional purpose and mechanisms involved in proper agent versioning.
