driving continuous improvement loops in software systems is really hard, even if you have really smart agents (codex, claude, cursor), really smart humans, decent observability tools, etc.
today we're launching Service Monitors, loops in prod made easy. blog.firetiger.com/firetiger-serv…

Observability is dead. Long live outcome engineering. You and your AI agents write code. Firetiger makes sure it works.
- Nobody actually cares about slow queries. They care that checkout is broken. Firetiger agents start from the customer impact, then trace issues back to the technical root cause. #OutcomeEngineering #AgenticAI #DevOps
00:00 - Shipping code faster is easier than running it safely in production. @usekernel is building infrastructure for AI agents, which means things move quickly, and reliability matters a lot. In this post, the Kernel team explains how they use Firetiger to monitor deployments, catch
- Firetiger repostedeffective LLM prompt caching makes or breaks inference budgets. tuning cache TTLs is hard and fiddly. we pointed persistent background agents at the task and saw a 77% reduction in cache write waste in a week. more on how here:
- Firetiger reposted@TownAI only had to connect @AxiomFM and @convex to their @usefiretiger agents to get high-quality change monitors setup. Now an agent joins each of their PRs, drafting a monitoring plan for what to lookout for when changes get deployed, and reporting with RCA on every issue.
- “We pay close attention to every Firetiger notifications.” 🫳🎤It's been amazing hearing from engineers like @georgekontridze from @TownAI about how they've adopted @usefiretiger
00:00 - Everyone is using AI to write code now. So what breaks next? - Code review - Trust - Observability In EP02 of Canned Responses, @lalkaka invited @templaedhel (CTO @ Metronome / Stripe) to taste tinned fish and talk about the future of engineering.
00:00Watch the full episode here: - Firetiger repostedI heard in several conversations that coding agents are the end of open-source software. I strongly disagree.
- Firetiger reposteda fun new feature! "fun", perhaps. defining and tracking Service Level Objectives are never fun! UNTIL TODAY! @usefiretiger agents now identify good service level indicators and set objectives intelligently when you set them forth on a mission to improve an outcome in
- Firetiger repostedA few weeks ago, @lalkaka threw this a new idea out: “Let’s interview tech leaders… while eating canned fish.” You think this was a joke, it isn’t, and everyone we talked to about it immediately loved the idea! So we filmed it and it’s called Canned Responses. Episode 01 is
00:00 - Firetiger repostedwe run into the same compaction bug and have the same hack in our agent harness @usefiretiger . fun to see the emperor has the same hole in their clothes.
- Large tool outputs quietly kill agent performance. You call an API, pass everything to the model, and hope for a clean answer. You get timeouts or messy reasoning instead. @swnelson_ from Firetiger breaks down how we handle it: - Truncation, which appears simple at first (but
