OnTrack: Real-Time Monitoring and Intervention in LLM Agent Trajectories via Streaming Structure-Aware Optimal Transport
arXiv cs.AI · Published · 3 min read

- What happened
- OnTrack monitors LLM agent behavior in real-time by comparing steps against successful runs, alerting or blocking agents within milliseconds per step.
- Why it matters
- Matters for engineers deploying autonomous agents in high-stakes applications like trading, trip planning, or IT triage where irreversible actions risk cost or safety.
- Watch out
- Effectiveness degrades without access to historical runs and tool schemas. Early abort decisions show 17% false positive rate, so human oversight remains necessary.
