Outcome
Unresolvable
The quote says 2025 "may see" the first agents join the workforce. Under the hedge rule a "may" possibility is not a forecast, so it is unresolvable (re-scored from partial for consistency with #70). For context, coding and research agents did see real adoption in 2025, but with incremental rather than material effects on company output.
