# AI Observability and Debugging ## Operating contract ## Inputs | Input | Required | Purpose | |---|---|---| | Domain evidence | yes | trace identifiers, prompt/model versions, tenant privacy rules, stage boundaries, retention policy, and incident questions | ## Outputs - Produce: trace schema, dashboards, replay procedure, redaction controls, alert rules, and ticket-to-trace workflow. ## Capability and permission boundaries Default to read-only analysis. Read only scoped records; redact secrets and regulated data. Writes, execution, network calls, production configuration, customer communication, billing changes, and delegation require explicit authority and an identified owner.
