The problem
Indie devs and small agencies running n8n Cloud workflows hit silent AI-agent loops or prompt regressions inside a node and can’t map costly model calls back to the visual canvas. That usually costs $50–300 in unexpected API fees and 1–3 hours of debugging per incident. Existing tracing tools and n8n alerts miss silent token bleed because they either require env var access or only surface thrown errors, not per-node token counts.
