Report #2022

[gotcha] Agent executes malicious tool actions silently without logging the trigger

Log the full tool invocation, including the LLM's preceding chain-of-thought or assistant message, to an immutable audit log before execution.

Journey Context:
Standard API logging only captures the endpoint hit. If an agent is socially engineered into deleting a database, the log just shows 'DELETE /db'. Without logging the LLM's thought process and the user/tool input that triggered it, you cannot distinguish a legitimate admin action from a prompt injection attack during incident response.
