Read the Trace

A single agent run has been fully instrumented, start to finish. Follow one user sentence through policy, retrieval, the model call, the tool broker and the CRM write, and explain exactly why the agent did what it did.

Foundational · First contact with the concept — the evidence points at the answer.

Outcome · Reconstruct an AI action from prompts, retrieval, tool calls and enterprise logs.

AI connection

This activity runs entirely on the deterministic runtime. Optional live-model runtimes only affect dialog, coaching and wording — never checks or scoring.

Deterministic simulationmode 0

Nothing leaves the browser session.

Chrome built-in AImode 1

Prompts never leave the learner's machine.

Bring your own keymode 2

Lab prompts reach the learner's chosen provider only.

Organization-owned AImode 3

Customer tenancy; Cybrary sees metadata only.

Cybrary-managed AImode 4

Cybrary AI gateway; retention off by default.

Hybrid routingmode 5

Per-job — the router never sends restricted jobs off-tenant.

Lab manifest

The machine-readable release contract. Authors edit this; the console refuses to publish without checks, both regression suites and a reference solve.
