telemetry
Telemetry is the automatic collection and transmission of data that a running system reports about its own behavior and state.
Telemetry is the automatic gathering of data such as logs, metrics and execution records while software or equipment runs, and sending that data to systems that analyze it. The term originally referred to remotely receiving measurements from distant equipment.
In software operations it supports error detection, performance analysis and observability. When running AI agents, telemetry records which steps an agent took and what it executed, helping engineers find causes of failure and improve quality.

OpenTelemetry, an open-source standard for collecting telemetry, can record which agent touched which tool, endpoint or data asset and when.
…ude.ai and the desktop app: watching deployments for regressions, checking whether telemetry was accurate, maintaining dashboards and proposing new initiatives.
First, collecting telemetry, the execution data a running system reports about itself, is not useful on its own.
Dashboards can show duration trends and intermittently failing tests alongside production telemetry.
Instead, the company separates telemetry collection, storage, and visualization.
