Leaderboards tell you which agent looked good on someone else’s maze. Shadow traffic tells you whether your agent survives your users, your tools, your repo, your latency budget, and your weird edge cases without lighting the place on fire.
Agents can loop, retry, call tools, fan out, and quietly turn a tiny task into a stupid bill. If you are shipping autonomous workflows without budgets, meters, and hard stops, you are not being ambitious — you are being sloppy.
AI agents do not just return text anymore. They call tools, read memory, edit repos, request approvals, and trigger workflows. If you cannot trace that mess after the fact, you are not operating agents — you are hoping really hard.
