OBS · Use Case Study
Observability
Live telemetry across agents, tools, and every system they touch.
A unified plane for watching what your agents observe, decide, execute, and verify — with traces, costs, and policy outcomes joined on a single timeline.
01 · Baseline
The coordination tax, measured.
Pre-agent metrics captured across observability workflows during the Phase 01 read-only observation window.
Agent traces correlated
0%
Across LLM, tools, and downstream systems
Cost visibility
Monthly invoice
Per provider, not per workflow
Drift detection
Manual
Reactive, after incident
02 · Architecture
How the agent core integrates.
Bounded actuation framework wraps every tool. No raw access — typed surfaces, scoped credentials, policy-bound writes.
- 01
OpenTelemetry-native
Every agent step emits OTel spans — LLM calls, tool invocations, policy decisions, verify outcomes.
- 02
Cost + quality joined
Per-workflow $ + latency + success rate dashboards, sliced by tenant, policy, model.
- 03
Drift + eval loop
Continuous offline + online evaluation; auto-flag regressions before they hit production blast radius.
03 · Outcomes
Steady-state, after Day 60.
Measured against the Phase 01 baseline. Every number is reconciled by the same audit fabric your CISO already trusts.

04 · Rollout
60 days. Three milestones.
Reversible at every step — rollback in < 60s.
Phase 01
Days 1–20
Read-only observation
Agent senses, plans, and shadows live traffic. Zero write surface. Baseline metrics captured.
Phase 02
Days 21–45
Supervised execution
Every action drafted by the agent, 1-click human approval, immutable audit trail signed off.
Phase 03
Day 46+
Bounded autonomy
Full Observe → Decide → Execute → Verify loop. HITL retained only on high-risk thresholds.
Governance
Controls shipped with this workflow.

Map this study to your OBS stack.
We baseline your workflows, walk the 60-day staircase, and leave you with a deployment plan — not a pitch deck.
