Your AI agent is failing silently right now and you have no idea.
No error logs. No alerts. No red flags. Just clean green checkmarks while your agent invents customer IDs, files tickets against people who don’t exist, and routes escalations nowhere.
This is the part nobody talks about when they ship agents to production.
Lemma catches it before your users do. It audits every trace against your agent’s own instructions, groups the recurring failures into issues, and alerts you in Slack with the exact traces you need to understand what went wrong.
Then it pulls that context directly into your coding agent so you can fix it without switching tabs.
The agents that survive production aren’t the ones with the best models. They’re the ones with the best monitoring.
