Agenttap simplifies LLM SDK debugging by showing exact API payloads

Agenttap is a new Python library designed to help developers debug issues with LLM SDKs by showing the exact data sent to API endpoints. It functions as an httpx transport, intercepting requests and scrubbing sensitive information like API keys from headers and known credential patterns within request bodies. This allows developers to inspect the precise payload received by services like Anthropic and OpenAI, which can be crucial for identifying subtle bugs caused by SDK version changes or unexpected data transformations.

    <p>I lost an entire afternoon last month to a bug that had a one-word explanation: the SDK swapped <code>system</code> for <code>system_prompt</code> between two minor versions, and my retry path was building the message dict the old way.</p> <p>The agent looked fine. The traces …
