AI agent filesystem monitor

Build a tool that monitors and explains AI agent filesystem activity. Developers need visibility into these black boxes.

Why now

New filesystems designed for AI agents create fresh debugging challenges.

AI coding agents make opaque filesystem changes that can break projects. A specialized monitor could log and explain these actions.

Create a lightweight service that watches agent activity and provides human-readable summaries. Highlight potentially dangerous operations.

AI development teams would pay for reliability insights. Offer both CLI and GUI versions.

MVP could simply log file changes with timestamps.

Risk is AI platforms building this in-house.
