instruction files, traces, personal vaults
Agent context files got linters, production telemetry got MCP and AI side panels, and private assistants started to look like owned workspaces with memory and approval gates.
the console is the product
the shipped surface of personal AI is no longer the model. it's the dashboard around it, and the jurisdiction it's allowed to run inside.
when agents became transparent: the observability moment we didn't see coming
from black boxes to transparent coworkers — how real-time agent observability just changed the game
the blind spots are getting plugged
