This is exactly what I needed. Running 4 autonomous marketing agents (content, engagement, learning, strategy) and the hardest part is visibility into what they're doing. Currently built a custom daily activity summary but it's basic. How do you handle the case where agents are running fine but producing bad outputs? We had an issue where the quality scorer's centroids went stale and the agent kept posting content that scored "ok" internally but got zero real engagement.

Good to know background hooks make that much of a difference. How are you handling the case where multiple agent teams are writing to the same jsonl files simultaneously?

I'm not actually reading the jsonl files. Agents Observe just uses hooks and sends all hook data the server (running as a docker container by default). Basic flow: 1. Plugin registers hooks that call a dump pipe script that sends hook events data to api server 2. Server parses events and stores them in sqlite by session and agent id - mostly just stores data, minimal processing 3. Dashboard UI uses websockets to get…

If you're just saving it into sqlite, why is server even needed?

The "sanitised optimism" problem is real. I've seen agents report "fixed!" when they just suppressed the error.

Role separation (builder/reviewer/tester) helps but the reviewer agent also tends to be too polite. Making the reviewer explicitly output PASS/FAIL/UNKNOWN with no room for "looks good overall" is the only thing that worked for me.

> Claude code hooks are blocking - performance degrades rapidly if you have a lot of plugins that use hooks

can confirm. ended up being really careful about what runs synchronously vs in the background.

IMHO the "sanitised optimism" thing others mention here is real too. had to add explicit verification steps because Claude kept reporting success when it just silenced the error. now I always make it prove things actually worked before moving on.

This looks to solve something I've been struggling with in my project, Sugar (1). Using the SDK and having sub agents running I found it difficult to have real- time insight into exactly what they were doing.

You can create a huge task list and Ralph mode can crank through it and also store persistent memory.

Interested in trying them together. 1. https://github.com/roboticforce/sugar
