Agent Observability: Langfuse, Phoenix, Opik
Three open-source agent observability platforms dominate 2026. Langfuse (MIT) — 6M+ installs/month, tracing + prompt management + evals + session replay. Arize Phoenix (Elastic 2.0) — deep agent-specific evals, RAG relevancy, OpenInference auto-instrumentation. Comet Opik (Apache 2.0) — automated prompt optimization, guardrails, LLM-judge hallucination detection.

This lesson isn’t interactive yet.
It is part of the curriculum and will get the same treatment as Phase 1 — a visual cover, hands-on labs, derivations with numeric checks and a quiz. Until then, the original lesson is the best place to read it:
Part of Phase 14 — Agent Engineering. Use the previous / next cards below to keep browsing the phase.
