Reticle brings Postman-style agent debugging

Reticle is a local-first desktop tool for designing scenarios, running them across models, and inspecting full agent traces including prompts, responses, tool calls, and outputs. It also adds dataset evals and step-by-step replay so developers can catch regressions when they change prompts or models.

// ANALYSIS

Hot take: this is the direction agent tooling needs to go, because ad-hoc logs and one-off playground runs break down fast once tools and multi-step decisions enter production workflows.

  • Scenario-based runs plus side-by-side model testing make prompt iterations less guessy and more reproducible.
  • Built-in eval datasets are a strong signal that the project is thinking beyond demos toward regression safety.
  • Local SQLite storage is a practical trust win for teams worried about leaking prompts, API keys, or proprietary traces.
  • The gap to watch is ecosystem integration (LangGraph, LlamaIndex, OpenTelemetry imports), which often decides whether debuggers stick.
