See Why Your Agents Fail

Not just errors—the chain of decisions that led there. What the LLM saw, what it decided, and why it went wrong.

Two lines to start tracing
from agent_tracer import Tracer

tracer = Tracer(api_key="at_live_...")
tracer.instrument_anthropic() # or instrument_openai()

💡
The error alone is useless. What matters: the LLM had the order date (47 days ago) but still decided to process the refund. Your prompt didn't tell it to check the policy window.

Most Agent Failures Aren't Exceptions

Your agent "succeeds" but does the wrong thing. No error thrown, just a bad decision you can't explain.

Of failures from prompts and specs—not code bugs

What inputs led to failure? What did the LLM "think"?
Without tracing, you'll never know

The Error Isn't the Answer. The Context Is.

Real scenarios where knowing the error wasn't enough. Click to see what actually mattered.

Code Review Agent misses SQL injection

The agent reviewed a PR and approved it, but missed a critical security flaw.

Support Agent enters infinite loop

Token usage spiked 10x. The agent kept retrying the same failed action.

Research Agent hallucinates sources

Generated report cited papers that don't exist. Looked authoritative but was fabricated.
