Vendors may have built observability dashboards and audit logs, but those are editable and partisan. SOC 2 and ISO 27001 audit a company's controls, but controls are less predictive when the software is agentic. TLDR: give an agent the same prompt 50 times, and you get 50 slightly different actions/answers - so the only thing worth auditing in a post-agentic world is what happened at runtime.Halo is an open-source project that produces agent runtime evidence. It's a small recorder that records every action an agent takes (eg. tool calls, model calls, data access, etc), and becomes a record in an append-only log. It's hash-cha...
