•Native OpenTelemetry integration enables structured traces and spans for every model call and tool execution, making agent debugging observable via tools like Cloud Trace
•A new Plugin System allows injecting cross-cutting concerns (logging, security filters) without modifying agent logic; includes a Retry and Reflect plugin for self-healing tool error recovery
•Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) confirmation flow lets developers flag sensitive tools as RequireConfirmation, pausing agent execution until a human approves the action
•Agents can now be defined via YAML configuration, enabling iteration on agent persona and sub-agent hierarchies without recompiling Go code
•
