Connect agent runs to their tool calls, permissions, retries, parallel work, and final outcomes through a clear execution record.
THE SIGNAL / TOPIC THREAD
Agent tracing.
A thread worth following.
Follow a task through plans, tool attempts, retries, and the outcome the application accepts.
A useful reading path
Begin with the agent tracing guide, then compare the Agent and LLM topic pages. Pay attention to task identity, parent-child relationships, attempt numbers, and the difference between requesting an action and observing that it completed.
