Latitude for Claude Code traces token usage

Latitude's new telemetry tool provides visibility into Claude Code's hidden operations, capturing system prompts, tool calls, and per-turn token costs. It helps developers optimize context usage and debug agentic loops within Anthropic's CLI.

// ANALYSIS

Latitude positions itself as the "control plane" for the agentic era, solving the visibility gap in black-box CLI agents.

–Reveals actual system prompts and tool schemas Claude Code uses at runtime
–Breaks down token costs per turn, essential for managing Anthropic's context-heavy agents
–Automated failure detection identifies where agents get stuck in recursive loops
–One-command installation makes it trivial to integrate with local CLI workflows
–Supports OpenTelemetry standards, allowing integration with existing enterprise observability stacks
