I always found it a bit ironic that my main use case for agents doesn't really at all make use of the "mutable ref" aspect of the agent, only the queue piece. I usually hold the name of the log file in the mutable ref to emphasize that the agent is "guarding" this particular log file, but I don't actually mutate it, so the mutability doesn't really matter for this purpose.
