How it fits together

1. Runs + tools
2. Connected traces
3. Actionable diagnosis

### What changes.

We instrument your agent’s operating path and connect it to the monitoring tools your team uses, with the context needed to investigate and act.

### Yours to put to work.

- Scope and acceptance criteria agreed together.

#### Connected traces and events

Correlation across agent runs, tools, approvals and external handoffs.

#### Operational views

Dashboards for completion, failures, waiting work, latency and cost.

#### Actionable operations

Alerts, investigation runbooks and appropriate redaction and retention rules.

### See an example engagement

An example scope, adapted to your environment.

1. The starting point: An agent appears idle and the operator cannot tell whether it is waiting or broken.
2. The work: Correlate the run, tool request and external event into an operational view.
3. The handoff: Traceable runs, useful alerts and a troubleshooting runbook.

#### How we evaluate the result

- A failed or stalled task can be traced across its execution path.
- Operational alerts identify agreed conditions without exposing sensitive payloads.
- The team can distinguish waiting, failing and completed work.
