# Exploring AI Failures

> Find where an AI/LLM application is failing in production and surface the failure patterns, working from real traces. Use when someone wants to understand what's going wrong with an AI feature, find and categorize failure modes, triage errors, or investigate quality issues (wrong answers, ignored instructions, hallucinations, tool misuse) — "what's failing in my agent", "surface error patterns", "why are the responses bad", "find the common failure modes", "what should I fix next". Covers scoping to one use case, finding failing traces by whichever signal fits the context (code errors, metric outliers, trace-type slices, manual review, existing-eval spikes, clustering), and reading them into a ranked failure taxonomy.
