We’ve been building open-source observability for AI agents since 2024. Recently, we released flow-1, a model trained with RL to find errors in agent traces. On our benchmark (https://laminar.sh/blog/flow-1), it matches GPT-6-sol in detection quality while bei

Community take

Founder says cheap models only flag obviously flawed steps, since propagated dumb errors cause most agent failures, while real sophistication lives in the system architecture.
