SummaryAI, from the source post

This post introduces AQuA (Ambient Quality Agent), an unattended system for monitoring and diagnosing production agent failures. AQuA sweeps production trajectories, grades sessions against a checklist of common breakdowns, clusters findings into issue clusters, verifies these clusters, and tracks them as new or recurring issues. It provides root-cause analysis by comparing failing trajectories with deployed source snapshots, citing specific code locations or external dependencies. AQuA is released as open-source building blocks for integration into existing projects and stacks.
