7 Agent observability metrics developers should track before deploying

A developer shared a checklist of 7 observability metrics for AI agents, arguing that monitoring API uptime alone isn't enough — agents need their own observability strategy.
Metrics 1-2:
- Task Success Rate: measure against the actual goal, not just whether the agent returned a response; track across different task types.
- Task Completion Rate: how often the agent reaches the final workflow step; track incomplete tasks, abandoned runs, and premature stops to find where agents get stuck.
