There are two pieces. An SDK that runs inside your service, and an MCP server your coding agent talks to. The SDK is what makes setting probes (virtual breakpoints, log or metric) possible without a redeploy. In Node and Python it hooks in-process. In Java it attaches as a JVM agent, instrumenting at the bytecode level. Either way the service keeps running and serving traffic. Nothing pauses.

Consider putting this near the beginning rather than 2/3 of the way down your pitch. I nearly stopped reading because these dramatic 1-2 sentence paragraphs are unpleasantly like listening to TV commercials. I think your target audience should not be CTOs or their direct reports, but engineers themselves, and I think you need a more focused pitch that takes less time to get to the point.

Anyway, an MCP-managed passive debugger seems like a useful tool. Best of luck with it.

Appreciate the feedback, will try to highlight the how instead of why specially to devs

Although, our primary sell is debugging, the context from production on how things work currently helps ai agents during feature development and code reviews as well.
