Read a deep-dive trace to see exactly what an agent did

Open a run trace to inspect the full reasoning, every tool call, the tokens, and the cost. Debug an agent like you would debug code.

What a trace contains

  • The plan the agent made.
  • Each tool call with its arguments and result.
  • Reflection and verification steps.
  • Tokens, latency, and cost per step.
  • The run id, so you can link a trace to an audit entry.

Open a trace

  1. From the live log or history, click a run’s "trace" link.
  2. The Deep Dive view opens with the full sequence.
  3. Scroll through the steps in order.

What to look for

A tool call that returned an unexpected result, a plan that was too broad, or a verify step that did not actually verify. The trace is where "why did it do that" gets answered.

Use it to tune

Found a step that keeps failing? Tighten the capabilities or shorten the system prompt. The trace tells you what changed, not just that something went wrong.
