Observability

Debugging multi-agent systems is notoriously difficult. Consonant providesend-to-end distributed tracing out of the box. Every system component emits OTEL traces.

Trace Structure

A single "Run" (Workflow) creates a root span. Each step (Planning, Policy Check, Agent Execution) is a child span.

Exporting Traces

Consonant supports standard OTLP exporters. You can send traces to:

• Jaeger
• Prometheus / Grafana
• Datadog
• Honeycomb

# helm-values.yaml
observability:
  tracing:
    enabled: true
    exporter: otlp
    endpoint: "http://jaeger-collector:4317"

Audit Logs

Separate from performance traces, Consonant maintains immutable Audit Logsfor compliance. These log decisions rather than just latency.
