Report #82083

[gotcha] Tool executions happen silently without audit logs, making post-incident forensics impossible

Implement structured logging for all tool calls, including the tool name, arguments \(redacting secrets\), and the agent's reasoning/chain of thought that triggered the call.

Journey Context:
Agents can make hundreds of tool calls autonomously. If a data exfiltration happens, you need to know exactly which tool call leaked the data and what prompt caused it. Without logging the \*reasoning\* alongside the tool call, you only see the symptom, not the cause. Standard request logging is insufficient; you must log the LLM's chain of thought.
