We catch silent coordination failures in agent systems. What should we ship next?
OSS layer for the kind of agent failures that tracing tools miss. Works for single-agent with tools, single-agent with MCP, or multi-agent workflows (CrewAI, LangGraph, custom).
What we catch today:
- Silent loops between agents: Researcher to Writer to Reviewer that bounces forever because the Reviewer never approves.
- Repeated agent or tool calls: Same task fired 50 times, nobody noticed.
- Traffic spikes: Sudden burst of calls way out of pattern.
What we are working on for FinOps. The goal is actually to save money, not just the dashboard itself:
- Workflow budget cap: Dollar limit for the whole run, halts before crossing.
- Cost attributed to the failure or any other coordination or silent failure: "This $500 was burned in a silent loop. Here is the cycle."
- Slow loop detection: The $0.05 per minute loop that burns $500 a week, way under any rate cap.
- MCP retry loop detection: Agent retrying a flaky MCP server forever.
- Approval bypass detection: A destructive tool was fired without the approval step (Replit case).
Would love to hear: is any of this actually useful, which one feels must-have versus nice-to-have, and would you try it locally if we ship it. We would rather build the thing one of you would actually run than ship five no one needs.
