Custom logging can technically capture everything, but in practice, it rarely does. Coverage degrades over time, external APIs get forgotten, and during incidents, you're left asking "did anyone log this?" instead of debugging. Automatic capture solves this. If you're a technical leader, there's a good chance your team is spending significant time on custom logging… and you might not even realize how much it's costing you in productivity and incomplete debugging data.

There's a common belief in the observability space: if you just collect more data, you'll have what you need to debug any issue. The reality is more frustrating: even with 100% unsampled observability, you're still missing critical debugging data.

Better specs and clearer task decomposition are a significant step forward. But specs and plans describe intentions. What AI agents also need is visibility into what systems actually do at runtime.
