Report #79641

[synthesis] Agent outputs structurally valid code that fails logically, preceded by dropping model confidence scores invisible to standard logging

Capture and aggregate top-token logprobs for critical decision points \(like choosing a tool or writing a conditional\); alert on downward trends even if outputs pass syntax checks.

Journey Context:
A model might output perfectly formatted JSON or valid Python code, passing all structural CI checks, but the underlying logic is flawed because the model was uncertain. If you only log the output text, you miss that the model assigned a 30% probability to the chosen token path, down from 90% the previous week \(perhaps due to a weight update or prompt drift\). Tracking confidence decay at specific decision nodes gives a leading indicator of logical degradation.
