We've tackled the core problem of agent telemetry normalization with our open-source project Beacon! https://github.com/Asymptote-Labs/agent-beacon

Beacon is a harness-agnostic, environment-agnostic framework for capturing, normalizing, and storing the full session history of AI agents. We extend the OpenTelemetry GenAI standard and have done the heavy lifting of integrating with 25+ agent harnesses through a combination of OTel instrumentation, hooks, and local session database capture.

This gives you a unified view of agent activity across environments, including local agents, cloud agents, browser-based chat, and agent SDKs, with the ability to track and retain complete session histories across all of them.

Would love your feedback!

Totally inevitable that they would move away from Git!

hopefully not! Anthropic did recently secure more compute...

Exactly. Our core insight was that the next generation of agent security will move to the endpoint, where agents actually do the work. Here's our broader thesis: https://justindsouza.substack.com/p/introducing-beacon-endpo...

Thanks! Many security vendors have their own flavor of this, but they're all closed source. We strongly believe this visibility layer needs to be built out in the open.
