At what operational scale does control-signal dilution primarily emerge to disrupt agent performance?
True/False: Under control-signal dilution, the guiding influence of an agent's completion contracts strengthens as its execution history expands.
Identify three behavioral failure outcomes that become more probable when an agent's initial plan becomes buried due to control-signal dilution.
A software maintenance agent is configured to resolve a complex repository issue using an initial compact plan and defined completion contracts. Over hours of operation, the agent generates numerous tool calls, parses voluminous environment feedback, and attempts multiple local fixes. Eventually, the agent begins cycling through redundant status queries and halts before completing the repair.

Which statement best describes the underlying mechanism of control-signal dilution in long-horizon agents?
True/False: Control-signal dilution causes an agent to strictly adhere to its compact plan regardless of how long the interaction trace grows.
